This patch adds the new MADV_WIPEONFORK and MADV_KEEPONFORK from Linux
4.14 to bits/mman-linux.h (and bits/mman.h in the hppa case).  Note
there are further hppa MADV_* changes in 4.14; I plan a separate glibc
patch for those.

Tested for x86_64.

I double-checked the constants against the kernel sources. Looks good.

Thanks,
