Summary

When we create a private mapping of an shm object, VM_PROT_WRITE should
always be included in maxprot regardless of permissions on the
underlying FD. Otherwise it is possible to open a shm object read-only,
map it with MAP_PRIVATE and PROT_WRITE, and violate the invariant in
vm_map_insert() that (prot & maxprot) == prot.

Test Plan

syzkaller generated a program that triggers the aforementioned
assertion failure:
