Commit b212921b13bd ("elf: don't use MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE for elf
executable mappings") reverted back to using MAP_FIXED to map ELF
LOAD segments because it was found that the segments in some binaries
overlap and can cause MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE to fail. The original intent of
MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE was to prevent the silent clobbering of an existing
mapping (e.g. stack) by the ELF image. To achieve this, expand on the
logic used when loading ET_DYN binaries which calculates a total size
for the image when the first segment is mapped, maps the entire image,
and then unmaps the remainder before remaining segments are mapped.
Apply this to ET_EXEC binaries as well as ET_DYN binaries as is done
now, and for both ET_EXEC and ET_DYN+INTERP use MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE for
the initial total size mapping and MAP_FIXED for remaining mappings.
For ET_DYN w/out INTERP, continue to map at a system-selected address
in the mmap region.
