In order to ensure guard gaps between mappings, mmap() needs to consider two things: 1. That the new mapping isn't placed in an any existing mappings guard gaps. 2. That the new mapping isn't placed such that any existing mappings are not in *its* guard gaps. The long standing behavior of mmap() is to ensure 1, but not take any care around 2. So for example, if there is a PAGE_SIZE free area, and a mmap() with a PAGE_SIZE size, and a type that has a guard gap is being placed, mmap() may place the shadow stack in the PAGE_SIZE free area. Then the mapping that is supposed to have a guard gap will not have a gap to the adjacent VMA. Use mm_get_unmapped_area_vmflags() in the do_mmap() so future changes can cause shadow stack mappings to be placed with a guard gap. Also use the THP variant that takes vm_flags, such that THP shadow stack can get the same treatment. Adjust the vm_flags calculation to happen earlier so that the vm_flags can be passed into __get_unmapped_area().
