Subject: [PATCH] ldso: don't reclaim zero-memory-sized segments

Some weird linkers may emit PT_LOAD segments with memsz = 0. ELF
specification does not forbid this, but such a segment with non-zero
p_vaddr will result in reclaiming of invalid memory address.

This patch skips such segments during reclaiming for better
compatibility.
