Hm. Do we have suid/sgid semantic defiend for non-executables?

To me we should do this for all file private mappings of the suid process
or don't do it at all.

And what about forked suid process which dropped privilages. We still have
code pages shared.

I don't think it worth it. The only right way to fix the problem is ECC
memory.
