Actually nope. We do have (most of) the backend, but the actual mmap()
call is still missing.
We inherited a sys_vm_map_file() from NewOS that the runtime loader
uses, and that would need to be adapted to match the mmap() style (ie.
FD instead of path).
Also, we still don't have support to change the protection flags of
single pages of an area which is needed for the full monty (to properly
support mlock() and mprotect()).
