prctl_set_mm: refactor checks from validate_prctl_map

Despite comment of validate_prctl_map claims there are no capability
checks, it is not completely true since commit 4d28df6152aa ("prctl: Allow
local CAP_SYS_ADMIN changing exe_file").  Extract the check out of the
function and make the function perform purely arithmetic checks.

This patch should not change any behavior, it is mere refactoring for
following patch.
