David Howells d00c7b9937 [PATCH] NOMMU: Permit ptrace to ignore non-PROT_WRITE VMAs in NOMMU mode 
Permit ptrace to modify a section that's non-shared but is marked
unwritable, such as is obtained by mapping the text segment of an ELF-FDPIC
executable binary with into a binary that's being ptraced[*].

[*] Under NOMMU conditions ptrace causes read-only MAP_PRIVATE mmaps to become
    totally private copies because if a private mapping was actually shared
    then the debugging setting breakpoints in it would potentially crash
    other processes.

This is done by using the VM_MAYWRITE flag rather than the VM_WRITE flag
when deciding whether to permit a write.

Without this patch a debugger can't set breakpoints in the mapped text
sections of executables that are mapped read-only private, even if the
mmap() syscall has taken a private copy because PT_PTRACED is set.

In addition, VM_MAYREAD is used instead of VM_READ for similar reasons.
