Chen Jingwen 98574c91e3 elf: don't use MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE for elf interpreter mappings 
commit 9b2f72cc0a upstream.

In commit b212921b13 ("elf: don't use MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE for elf
executable mappings") we still leave MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE in place for
load_elf_interp.

Unfortunately, this will cause kernel to fail to start with:

    1 (init): Uhuuh, elf segment at 00003ffff7ffd000 requested but the memory is mapped already
    Failed to execute /init (error -17)

The reason is that the elf interpreter (ld.so) has overlapping segments.

  readelf -l ld-2.31.so

The reason for this problem is the same as described in commit
ad55eac74f ("elf: enforce MAP_FIXED on overlaying elf segments").

Not only executable binaries, elf interpreters (e.g. ld.so) can have
overlapping elf segments, so we better drop MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE and go
back to MAP_FIXED in load_elf_interp.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
