CLOUDSTACK-9551: Move java tmp dir to cloudstack-agent's path to avoid
noexec on /tmp

> Project: CloudStack
> Issue Type: Bug
> Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the

> Affects Versions: 4.2.1, 4.7.1, 4.9.1.0

> We ran into an issue today where the sysadmins wanted to put /tmp on its own
> mount and set the "noexec" mount flag as a security measure. This is
> incompatible with the CloudStack KVM agent, because it stores JNA tmp files
> here and Java is unable to map into these objects. To get around this we
> moved the agent's temp dir to live with the agent files, which seems like a
> reasonable thing to do regardless of whether you're trying to secure /tmp.
