prctl: more prctl(PR_SET_MM_*) checks

Individual prctl(PR_SET_MM_*) calls do some checking to maintain a
consistent view of mm->arg_start et al fields, but not enough.  In
particular PR_SET_MM_ARG_START/PR_SET_MM_ARG_END/ R_SET_MM_ENV_START/
PR_SET_MM_ENV_END only check that the address lies in an existing VMA,
but don't check that the start address is lower than the end address _at
all_.

Consolidate all consistency checks, so there will be no difference in
the future between PR_SET_MM_MAP and individual PR_SET_MM_* calls.

The program below makes both ARGV and ENVP areas be reversed.  It makes
/proc/$PID/cmdline show garbage (it doesn't oops by luck).

#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/prctl.h>
#include <unistd.h>

enum {PAGE_SIZE=4096};

int main(void)
{
	void *p;

	p = mmap(NULL, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);

#define PR_SET_MM               35
#define PR_SET_MM_ARG_START     8
#define PR_SET_MM_ARG_END       9
#define PR_SET_MM_ENV_START     10
#define PR_SET_MM_ENV_END       11
	prctl(PR_SET_MM, PR_SET_MM_ARG_START, (unsigned long)p + PAGE_SIZE - 1, 0, 0);
	prctl(PR_SET_MM, PR_SET_MM_ARG_END,   (unsigned long)p, 0, 0);
	prctl(PR_SET_MM, PR_SET_MM_ENV_START, (unsigned long)p + PAGE_SIZE - 1, 0, 0);
	prctl(PR_SET_MM, PR_SET_MM_ENV_END,   (unsigned long)p, 0, 0);

	pause();
	return 0;
}
