Since we looking into mmap(2) ABI, maybe we should consider re-defining
MAP_DENYWRITE and MAP_EXECUTABLE as 0 in hope that we would be able to
re-use these bits in the future? These flags are ignored now anyway.

Yes, we can make these -EOPNOTSUPP in the new syscall.

You cannot detect them, if we would redefine them as 0. :)

Yes, we can, there will now be missing bits in
LEGACY_MAP_SUPPORTED_MASK that will fail those bit values until we
re-define them. Everything else is a an exercise for libc about what
it wants to do when it sees those values.
