Lorenzo Stoakes f11d31371b mm: perform the mapping_map_writable() check after call_mmap()
[ Upstream commit 158978945f3173b8c1a88f8c5684a629736a57ac ]

In order for a F_SEAL_WRITE sealed memfd mapping to have an opportunity to
clear VM_MAYWRITE, we must be able to invoke the appropriate
vm_ops->mmap() handler to do so.  We would otherwise fail the
mapping_map_writable() check before we had the opportunity to avoid it.

This patch moves this check after the call_mmap() invocation.  Only memfd
actively denies write access causing a potential failure here (in
memfd_add_seals()), so there should be no impact on non-memfd cases.

This patch makes the userland-visible change that MAP_SHARED, PROT_READ
mappings of an F_SEAL_WRITE sealed memfd mapping will now succeed.

There is a delicate situation with cleanup paths assuming that a writable
mapping must have occurred in circumstances where it may now not have.  In
order to ensure we do not accidentally mark a writable file unwritable by
mistake, we explicitly track whether we have a writable mapping and unmap
only if we do.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
