The thought was, here all testings are done with helpers, e.g. 
is_data_mapping(), so creating a helper for shadow stack is more inline 
with the existing code.  Or, maybe we can call it 
is_shadow_stack_mapping()?  And, since we have a helper, use it in 
accountable_mapping() as well.  Or do you have other suggestions?
