[PATCH] selinux: fix and cleanup mprotect checks
Fix the SELinux mprotect checks on executable mappings so that they are not re-applied when the mapping is already executable as well as cleaning up the code. This avoids a situation where e.g. an application is prevented from removing PROT_WRITE on an already executable mapping previously authorized via execmem permission due to an execmod denial.
