On v5 and lower CPUs we can't provide MDWE protection, so ensure we fail
any attempt to enable it via prctl(PR_SET_MDWE).

Previously such an attempt would misleadingly succeed, leading to any
subsequent mmap(PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE) or execve() failing unconditionally
(the latter somewhat violently via force_fatal_sig(SIGSEGV) due to
READ_IMPLIES_EXEC).
