mm: add arch hook to validate mmap() prot flags
Add a hook to permit architectures to perform validation on the prot flags passed to mmap(), like arch_validate_prot() does for mprotect(). This will be used by arm64 to reject PROT_WRITE+PROT_EXEC mappings on configurations that run with WXN enabled.
