Don't lock guardpage if the stack is growing up

Linux kernel excludes guard page when performing mlock on a VMA with
down-growing stack. However, some architectures have up-growing stack
and locking the guard page should be excluded in this case too.

This patch fixes lvm2 on PA-RISC (and possibly other architectures with
up-growing stack). lvm2 calculates number of used pages when locking and
when unlocking and reports an internal error if the numbers mismatch.

[ Patch changed fairly extensively to also fix /proc/<pid>/maps for the
  grows-up case, and to move things around a bit to clean it all up and
  share the infrstructure with the /proc bits.

  Tested on ia64 that has both grow-up and grow-down segments  - Linus ]
