futex: setup writeable mapping for futex ops which modify user space …
…data The futex code installs a read only mapping via get_user_pages_fast() even if the futex op function has to modify user space data. The eventual fault was fixed up by futex_handle_fault() which walked the VMA with mmap_sem held. After the cleanup patches which removed the mmap_sem dependency of the futex code commit 4dc5b7a36a49eff97050894cf1b3a9a02523717 (futex: clean up fault logic) removed the private VMA walk logic from the futex code. This change results in a stale RO mapping which is not fixed up. Instead of reintroducing the previous fault logic we set up the mapping in get_user_pages_fast() read/write for all operations which modify user space data. Also handle private futexes in the same way and make the current unconditional access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE) depend on the futex op.
