IIUC, we could skip the arch_dup_mmap() and init_new_context() here for
the fork() case since the ptrauth_keys would be copied as part of the
dup_mm(). There is another situation where init_new_context() is called
bprm_mm_init() -> mm_alloc() -> mm_init() -> init_new_context().
However, in this case the core code also calls arch_bprm_mm_init(). So I
think we only need to update the latter to get a new random key.

Nitpick: 2018. You could also use the SPDX header, save some lines.
