bpf: Prevent writable memory-mapping of read-only ringbuf pages
Only the very first page of BPF ringbuf that contains consumer position counter is supposed to be mapped as writeable by user-space. Producer position is read-only and can be modified only by the kernel code. BPF ringbuf data pages are read-only as well and are not meant to be modified by user-code to maintain integrity of per-record headers. This patch allows to map only consumer position page as writeable and everything else is restricted to be read-only. remap_vmalloc_range() internally adds VM_DONTEXPAND, so all the established memory mappings can't be extended, which prevents any future violations through mremap()'ing.
