arch_validate_prot() is a hook that can validate whether a given set of
protection flags is valid in an mprotect() operation. It is given the set
of protection flags and the address being modified.
However, the address being modified can currently not actually be used in
a meaningful way because:
1. Only the address is given, but not the length, and the operation can
span multiple VMAs. Therefore, the callee can't actually tell which
virtual address range, or which VMAs, are being targeted.
2. The mmap_lock is not held, meaning that if the callee were to check
the VMA at @addr, that VMA would be unrelated to the one the
operation is performed on.
Currently, custom arch_validate_prot() handlers are defined by
arm64, powerpc and sparc.
arm64 and powerpc don't care about the address range, they just check the
flags against CPU support masks.
sparc's arch_validate_prot() attempts to look at the VMA, but doesn't take
the mmap_lock.
Change the function signature to also take a length, and move the
arch_validate_prot() call in mm/mprotect.c down into the locked region.
