This reverts commit 2f36db71009304b3f0b95afacd8eba1f9f046b87. It fixed a local root exploit but also introduced a dependency on the lower file system implementing an mmap operation just to open a file, which is a bit of a heavy hammer. The right fix is to have mmap depend on the existence of the mmap handler instead.
