commit a9e20306fbe3262602f21b876a52a1ef38cdf20a

    int10: Do an mprotect(..,PROT_EXEC) on shmat()ed memory ranges.
    
    When the linux kernel sets the NX bit vm86 segfaults when it tries to execute
    code in memory that is not marked EXEC. Such code gets called whenever
    we return from a VBIOS call to signal the calling program that the call
    is actually finished and that we are not trapping for other reasons (like
    IO accesses).
    Use mprotect(2) to set these memory ranges PROT_EXEC.
