    Fix __minimal_malloc segfaults in __mmap due to stack-protector
    
    Starting with commit b05fae4d8e34604a72ee36d2d3164391b76fcf0b
    "elf: Use the minimal malloc on tunables_strdup",
    I get lots of segfaults in static tests on s390x when also using, e.g.:
    export GLIBC_TUNABLES="glibc.elision.enable=1"
    
    tunables_strdup callls __minimal_malloc which tries to call __mmap
    due to insufficient space left. __mmap itself first setups a new
    stack frame and segfaults when copying the stack-protector canary
    from thread-pointer. The latter one is not yet setup.
    
    Thus this patch also turns off stack-protection for mmap.
