Subject: [PATCH] fs, elf: don't complain MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE unless -EEXIST
 error.

Commit 4ed28639519c7bad ("fs, elf: drop MAP_FIXED usage from elf_map") is
printing spurious messages under memory pressure due to map_addr == -ENOMEM.

 9794 (a.out): Uhuuh, elf segment at 00007f2e34738000(fffffffffffffff4) requested but the memory is mapped already
 14104 (a.out): Uhuuh, elf segment at 00007f34fd76c000(fffffffffffffff4) requested but the memory is mapped already
 16843 (a.out): Uhuuh, elf segment at 00007f930ecc7000(fffffffffffffff4) requested but the memory is mapped already

Complain only if -EEXIST, and use %px for printing the address.
