There are other property types, but we only look for NT_GNU_PROPERTY_TYPE_0.

Note->n_namesz is always four-byte. I should have used u32.

Here we only detect the warp around. After this returns we then check other
types of overflow in scan().

Yes, they need to be in ascending order.

I need to work on that :-) What would you suggest?

There are other property types, but the kernel does not look at most of them.
If the kernel needs to look at others, we need to rewrite this.

BUF_SIZE can be smaller, for example 64. If it is too small, we need to do
kernel_read() too often.

Yes, thanks.

If the item is a bit of GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_1_AND, then this code would
work. Has it been finalized?
