Subject: [PATCH] mm: move the check of READ_IMPLIES_EXEC out of do_mmap()

This patch moves the check of READ_IMPLIES_EXEC out of do_mmap(), and
calls the LSM hooks at the same time. The below is reason.

Some logic may want to call do_mmap(), but they are not aware of
the harm this poses to LSM.

For example, CVE-2016-10044[1] has reported many years ago, but the
remap_file_pages() can still bypass W^X policy enforced by SELinux[2].

Add a check is easy, but there may have more calls to do_mmap() in the
furture. And move the security check in do_mmap() will let it in the
mmap_write_lock, which slow down the performance and even have deadlocks
if someone depends on it.

Moving the check of READ_IMPLIES_EXEC out of do_mmap() can keep the LSM
hook is called out of the mmap_write_lock, and avoid repeated logic for
whether READ_IMPLIES_EXEC should add PROT_EXEC for the mapping or not(In
current, the !MMU case won't implies exec if file's mmap_capabilities is
not exist, but the security check logic is different). And all known cases
that call do_mmap() become secure and anyone want to apply the
READ_IMPLIES_EXEC logic will call the LSM hook correctly.

Current call sites to do_mmap():
arch/x86/kernel/shstk.c: must not want to PROT_EXEC in any case.
fs/aio.c: have ensured never have PROT_EXEC in the fix of CVE-2016-10044.
mm/util.c and ipc/shm.c: the common case
mm/mmap.c: in the history, remap_file_pages won't care about the
READ_IMPLIES_EXEC. this side effect is introduced in the emulation
version, after the deprecated mark exist.

An alternative method is moving security_file_mmap() back into do_mmap(),
i.e. revert the commit 8b3ec6814c83d76b85bd13badc48552836c24839
("take security_mmap_file() outside of ->mmap_sem"), which is simpler,
but it will affect performance.
