The policy file has no write method and is exposed read-only (S_IRUGO in
selinux_files[]), yet sel_open_policy() performs no open mode check, so a
CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE caller can open it O_RDWR. Reject FMODE_WRITE at open, as
kernfs does.

The file can then never be mapped with FMODE_WRITE, so do_mmap() always
clears VM_MAYWRITE and VM_SHARED for MAP_SHARED mappings and the VM_SHARED
check in sel_mmap_policy() cannot be reached. Remove it.

This also stops sel_mmap_policy() clearing VM_MAYWRITE on a mapping that is
neither a PFN map nor a mixed map, ahead of the core enforcing that only
such mappings may do so.
