madvise: tolerate EINVAL and ENOSYS
These errors can occur if we are built on a system with support for
madvise(MADV_NOFORK) but then we are run on a system whose kernel
does not support that flag.
If the error is something that we don't tolerate at all, we now log
it before crashing.
Fixes bug 31570. I am calling this a bugfix on 0.4.1.1-alpha, where
we actually started using the map_anon code.
