Currently SELinux does not check CAP_SYS_RAWIO in the file_mmap hook. This
means there is no DAC check on the ability to mmap low addresses in the
memory space. This function adds the DAC check for CAP_SYS_RAWIO while
maintaining the selinux check on mmap_zero. This means that processes
which need to mmap low memory will need CAP_SYS_RAWIO and mmap_zero but will
NOT need the SELinux sys_rawio capability.
