validate_mem() does only make sense for !SS_CAP_STATIC_MAP sockets. Therefore,
re-direct validate_mem() calls only for those. The newly added redirection 
layer will allow for a "library" module named "rsrc_nonstatic" which contains 
the resource database handling code, and it will only need to be loaded for 
the drivers which need it.
