mm: Don't allow write GUPs to shadow stack memory

The x86 Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET) feature includes a
new type of memory called shadow stack. This shadow stack memory has
some unusual properties, which requires some core mm changes to
function properly.

In userspace, shadow stack memory is writable only in very specific,
controlled ways. However, since userspace can, even in the limited
ways, modify shadow stack contents, the kernel treats it as writable
memory. As a result, without additional work there would remain many
ways for userspace to trigger the kernel to write arbitrary data to
shadow stacks via get_user_pages(, FOLL_WRITE) based operations. To
help userspace protect their shadow stacks, make this a little less
exposed by blocking writable get_user_pages() operations for shadow
stack VMAs.

Still allow FOLL_FORCE to write through shadow stack protections, as it
does for read-only protections. This is required for debugging use
cases.
