Merge tag 'denywrite-for-5.15' of git://github.com/davidhildenbrand/linux
Pull MAP_DENYWRITE removal from David Hildenbrand: "Remove all in-tree usage of MAP_DENYWRITE from the kernel and remove VM_DENYWRITE. There are some (minor) user-visible changes: - We no longer deny write access to shared libaries loaded via legacy uselib(); this behavior matches modern user space e.g. dlopen(). - We no longer deny write access to the elf interpreter after exec completed, treating it just like shared libraries (which it often is). - We always deny write access to the file linked via /proc/pid/exe: sys_prctl(PR_SET_MM_MAP/EXE_FILE) will fail if write access to the file cannot be denied, and write access to the file will remain denied until the link is effectivel gone (exec, termination, sys_prctl(PR_SET_MM_MAP/EXE_FILE)) -- just as if exec'ing the file. Cross-compiled for a bunch of architectures (alpha, microblaze, i386, s390x, ...) and verified via ltp that especially the relevant tests (i.e., creat07 and execve04) continue working as expected" * tag 'denywrite-for-5.15' of git://github.com/davidhildenbrand/linux: fs: update documentation of get_write_access() and friends mm: ignore MAP_DENYWRITE in ksys_mmap_pgoff() mm: remove VM_DENYWRITE binfmt: remove in-tree usage of MAP_DENYWRITE kernel/fork: always deny write access to current MM exe_file kernel/fork: factor out replacing the current MM exe_file binfmt: don't use MAP_DENYWRITE when loading shared libraries via uselib()
