[PATCH] vfio/fsl-mc: prevent read-only region mappings from becoming writable

[Abdifatah Suruur <suruurism@gmail.com>]

vfio_fsl_mc_mmap() rejects writable mappings of regions without the
WRITE flag, but leaves VM_MAYWRITE set.  Userspace can map such a region
read-only and then upgrade the mapping to writable with mprotect(),
writing to MMIO regions (e.g. response portals) the device marks
read-only.

Clear VM_MAYWRITE for regions without the WRITE flag, as i915 does for
its read-only objects and as fixed in drm/vc4 (CVE-2026-68445) and
drm/panthor (CVE-2024-53071) and ptp: vmclock (commit
a5edadbae57e2298a56cf7a4e774a027905a331f).
