Some processes store jitted code in memfd mappings to avoid having rwx
mappings.  These processes map the code with a writeable mapping and a
read-execute mapping.  They write the code using the writeable mapping
and then unmap the writeable mapping.  All subsequent execution is
through the read-execute mapping.

perf inject --jit ignores //anon* mappings for each process where a
jitdump is present because it expects to inject mmap events for each
jitted code range, and said jitted code ranges will overlap with the
//anon* mappings.

Ignore /memfd: mappings so that jitted code contained in /memfd:
mappings is treated the same way as jitted code contained in //anon*
mappings.
