If someone specifies this (PROT_EXEC | PROT_WRITE) today, it works because
of the way permissions are setup in `protection_map`. On risc-v there is no
way to have a page which is execute and write only. So expectation is that
if some apps were using `PROT_EXEC | PROT_WRITE` today, they were working
because internally it was translating to read, write and execute on page
permissions level. This patch make sure that, it stays same from page
permissions perspective.
If someone was using PROT_EXEC, it may translate to execute only and this change
doesn't impact that.
Patch simply looks for presence of `PROT_WRITE` and absence of `PROT_READ` in
protection flags and if that condition is satisfied, it assumes that caller assumed
page is going to be read allowed as well.

Thanks. Yeah it looks like I forgot to remove this over the churn.
Will fix it.
