  Hi

This patch mainly to fix a reported bug:

"p_align on PT_LOAD segment in DSO isn't honored"
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28676

A testcase had been builded by H.J.Lu:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=13838

And in Patch 1/1, I also show a simple testcase which
modified from H.J.Lu.

And a similar bug in ELF binary was also reported:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215275

A related fix patch could been found:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20211009092658.59665-4-rongwei.wang@linux.alibaba.com/
Originally, we send this patch for introducing .text
hugepages, was not aware of it's bug. And now, I am
not sure whether kernel maintainer will regards it as
a bug. But it deserved try again.

Thanks.
