/proc/iomem: only expose physical resource addresses to privileged users
commit 51d7b120418e99d6b3bf8df9eb3cc31e8171dee4 upstream. In commit c4004b02f8e5b ("x86: remove the kernel code/data/bss resources from /proc/iomem") I was hoping to remove the phyiscal kernel address data from /proc/iomem entirely, but that had to be reverted because some system programs actually use it. This limits all the detailed resource information to properly credentialed users instead.
