Andreas Kling	fe9680f0a4	Kernel: Validate PROT_READ and PROT_WRITE against underlying file ... This patch fixes some issues with the mmap() and mprotect() syscalls, neither of whom were checking the permission bits of the underlying files when mapping an inode MAP_SHARED. This made it possible to subvert execution of any running program by simply memory-mapping its executable and replacing some of the code.

Andreas Kling	5387a19268	Kernel: Make Process::file_description() vend a RefPtr<FileDescription> ... This encourages callers to strongly reference file descriptions while working with them. This fixes a use-after-free issue where one thread would close() an open fd while another thread was blocked on it becoming readable.
