since this bug affects any kernel, including those of your own employer, it
will stay open until it gets fixed. it's also obvious that failing the second
mprotect in the same block of code means you've left ld.so's RELRO region
writable and that's a security bug itself so you'd better check its return
value as well and ask for a CVE.
