[PATCH 09/12] mm: make vm_area_desc utilise vma_flags_t only

Mon Jan 19 14:49:00 UTC 2026
Now we have eliminated all uses of vm_area_desc->vm_flags, eliminate this
field, and have mmap_prepare users utilise the vma_flags_t
vm_area_desc->vma_flags field only.
As part of this change we alter is_shared_maywrite() to accept a
vma_flags_t parameter, and introduce is_shared_maywrite_vm_flags() for use
with legacy vm_flags_t flags.
We also update struct mmap_state to add a union between vma_flags and
vm_flags temporarily until the mmap logic is also converted to using
vma_flags_t.
Also update the VMA userland tests to reflect this change.
