Also, make their buffers read-only when mmaping them from userspace. While at it, do not return a void function, as caught by Fengguang's build robot. Changes made by Robert Richter : * mmap should return EACCES error if fd can not be opened writable. This error code also helps userland to map buffers readonly on failure.
