[PATCH] NOMMU: make SYSV SHM nattch work correctly

Make the SYSV SHM nattch counter work correctly by forcing multiple VMAs to
be produced to represent MAP_SHARED segments, even if they overlap exactly.

Using this test program:

http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/doshm.c

Run as:

doshm sysv

I can see nattch going from one before the patch:

That's +1 to nattch for each shmat() made.
