    Remove portability support for mmap
    
    We no longer need to wrap/replace mmap for portability now that
    pre-auth compression has been removed from OpenSSH.

commit 0082fba4efdd492f765ed4c53f0d0fbd3bdbdf7f

    upstream commit
    
    Remove support for pre-authentication compression. Doing
    compression early in the protocol probably seemed reasonable in the 1990s,
    but today it's clearly a bad idea in terms of both cryptography (cf. multiple
    compression oracle attacks in TLS) and attack surface.
    
    Moreover, to support it across privilege-separation zlib needed
    the assistance of a complex shared-memory manager that made the
    required attack surface considerably larger.
    
    Prompted by Guido Vranken pointing out a compiler-elided security
    check in the shared memory manager found by Stack
    (http://css.csail.mit.edu/stack/); ok deraadt@ markus@
    
    NB. pre-auth authentication has been disabled by default in sshd
    for >10 years.

commit 27c3a9c2aede2184856b5de1e6eca414bb751c38

    upstream commit
    
    Avoid a theoretical signed integer overflow should
    BN_num_bytes() ever violate its manpage and return a negative value. Improve
    order of tests to avoid confusing increasingly pedantic compilers.
