[PATCH] binfmt_elf_fdpic: reject PT_LOAD with filesz larger than memsz

The ELF specification requires p_filesz to be no larger than p_memsz for
PT_LOAD segments.

elf_fdpic_map_file_constdisp_on_uclinux() sizes its contiguous allocation
from p_memsz, then read_code() copies p_filesz bytes into it. A malformed
segment can therefore copy file contents past the allocation on NOMMU
systems. The direct-mmap path also subtracts p_filesz from p_memsz without
first validating the relationship.

Validate every PT_LOAD immediately after fetching the program headers.
This covers both executable and interpreter headers before
begin_new_exec() makes execution irreversible.

On RV32 NOMMU, an ET_DYN with an 8192-byte p_filesz and 4096-byte p_memsz
copied a marker from the second file page past its one-page mapping.
After this change execve() rejects it with -EINVAL, while an 8192/8192
control still executes.

The flaw dates back to the driver's introduction in the pre-git history
tree introduced in v2.6.11 by 91808d6ebe39 ("[PATCH] FRV: Add FDPIC ELF
binary format driver").
