It is only used in
./java.base/share/native/libzip/zip_util.c
./java.base/share/native/libzip/zip_util.h
and the header itself is only included in the .c file. So unless this
source file is used for the other libraries (which I don't see) then we
don't need -DUSE_MMAP when building them.
AFAIKS the use of this for BUILD_LIBDT_SOCKET and BUILD_LIBDT_SHMEM
dates back to the build-infra changes in JDK 8.
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8/jdk/rev/9d3d01aca52c
But I can't see why it was introduced there.
In JDK 7 it's only applied to the zip library.
Cheers,
David
