Subject: [PATCH 2/2] always check for PaX MPROTECT on linux, make EMUTRAMP
 experimental

- ffi_prep_closure_loc doesn't necessarily generate trampolines recognized by
  PaX EMUTRAMP handler; there is no way to check before, and it isn't working
on x86-64 right now -> experimental
- if MPROTECT is enabled use the same workaround as is used for SELinux (double
  mmap())
