linux-user: Use memfd for open syscall emulation
For certain paths in /proc, the open syscall is intercepted and the returned file descriptor points to a temporary file with emulated contents. If TMPDIR is not accessible or writable for the current user (for example in a read-only mounted chroot or container) tools such as ps from procps may fail unexpectedly. Trying to read one of these paths such as /proc/self/stat would return an error such as ENOENT or EROFS. To relax the requirement on a writable TMPDIR, use memfd_create() instead to create an anonymous file and return its file descriptor. Signed-off-by:Rainer Müller <raimue@codingfarm.de> Reviewed-by:
