That said I think using read-lock here would be a bug.
If I understand correctly, the caller can't set both fields atomically, for
prctl() does not receive both fields at one call.
prctl(PR_SET_MM, PR_SET_MM_ARG_START xor PR_SET_MM_ARG_END xor PR_SET_MM_ENV_START xor PR_SET_MM_ENV_END, new value, 0, 0);
Then, I wonder whether reading arg_start|end and env_start|end atomically makes
sense. Just retry reading if arg_start > env_end or env_start > env_end is fine?
It might trap into dead loop if those are set to wrong values, right?
