Subject: [PATCH v23 28/28] mm: Introduce PROT_SHSTK for shadow stack

There are three possible options to create a shadow stack allocation API:
an arch_prctl, a new syscall, or adding PROT_SHSTK to mmap()/mprotect().
Each has its advantages and compromises.

An arch_prctl() is the least intrusive.  However, the existing x86
arch_prctl() takes only two parameters.  Multiple parameters must be
passed in a memory buffer.  There is a proposal to pass more parameters in
registers [1], but no active discussion on that.

A new syscall minimizes compatibility issues and offers an extensible frame
work to other architectures, but this will likely result in some overlap of
mmap()/mprotect().

The introduction of PROT_SHSTK to mmap()/mprotect() takes advantage of
existing APIs.  The x86-specific PROT_SHSTK is translated to VM_SHSTK and
a shadow stack mapping is created without reinventing the wheel.  There are
potential pitfalls though.  The most obvious one would be using this as a
bypass to shadow stack protection.  However, the attacker would have to get
to the syscall first.
