procfs: make /proc/*/pagemap 0400
The /proc/*/pagemap contain sensitive information and currently its mode
is 0444. Change this to 0400, so the VFS will prevent unprivileged
processes from getting file descriptors on arbitrary privileged
/proc/*/pagemap files.
This reduces the scope of address space leaking and bypasses by protecting
already running processes.
