Ping. Kees, Andrew, are there some other objections I'm not yet addressed?
I've updated changelog a bit more. Please review.

Subject: [PATCH] prctl: Add PR_SET_MM codes to tune up mm_struct entires v2

At process of task restoration we need a way to tune up
a few members of mm_struct structure such as start_code,
end_code, start_data, end_data, start_stack, start_brk, brk.

While most of them have a statistical nature (their values
are involved into calculation of /proc/<pid>/statm output)
the start_brk and brk values are used to compute an allowed
size of program data segment expansion. Which means an arbitrary
changes of this value might be a bit dangerous operation.

To restrict access to this facility the following requirements
applied to prctl users:

 - The process has to have CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability granted.
 - For all opcodes except start_brk/brk members an appropriate
   VMA area must be existing and should fit certain VMA flags,
   such as:
   - code segment must be executable but not writable;
   - data segment must not be executable.

start_brk/brk values must not intersect with data segment
and must not exceed RLIMIT_DATA resource limit.

Still the main guard is CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability check.

v2:
 - Add a check for vma start address, testing for vma ending
   address is not enough. From Kees Cook.

 - Add some sanity tests for assigned addresses.
