The implementation was rather buggy. It unconditionally marked PTEs read-only, even for VM_SHARED mappings. I'm not sure whether this is actually a problem, but it certainly seems unwise. More importantly, it released the mmap lock before flushing the TLB, which could allow a racing CoW operation to falsely believe that the underlying memory was not writable. I can't find any users at all of this mechanism, so just remove it.
