ring buffer: Propagate __rb_map_vma return value to caller

Browse source

commit de4cbd7047 upstream.

The return value from `__rb_map_vma()`, which rejects writable or
executable mappings (VM_WRITE, VM_EXEC, or !VM_MAYSHARE), was being
ignored. As a result the caller of `__rb_map_vma` always returned 0
even when the mapping had actually failed, allowing it to proceed
with an invalid VMA.
