    Hmm, why is holding it for read sufficient?

    That initialization is pointless.

    IIRC then text pages are (VM_READ|VM_EXEC)

    And what makes sure that we don't ?

    Why don't you get the error code of anon_vma_prepare()?

    Wants to called with mmap_sem held as well, right ?

    Same as above

    ret = 0 ?? At least, that's what the comment above says.
