[SRU OEM-6.1 01/14] exec: Remove FOLL_FORCE for stack setup

[Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo]

From: Kees Cook <keescook at chromium.org>

It does not appear that FOLL_FORCE should be needed for setting up the
stack pages. They are allocated using the nascent brpm->vma, which was
newly created with VM_STACK_FLAGS, which an arch can override, but they
all appear to include VM_WRITE | VM_MAYWRITE. Remove FOLL_FORCE.
