Right now RestrictFileSystemAccess= checks that a file comes from a trusted dm-verity device, but it doesn't guard against mapping that file and making use of COW modifications. So a MAP_PRIVATE mapping of a trusted binary can be made writable, modified, and executed, while the vma still points to the trusted file and the pages are attacker-controlled anonymous copies. Enforce W^X: deny any mapping that is writable and executable at once, and refuse to make a private file mapping executable once it has been modified through copy-on-write.
