[PATCH 10/13] mm/vma: convert miscellaneous uses of VMA flags in core mm

From: Lorenzo Stoakes <ljs@kernel.org>
Date: 2026-06-29 19:26:28
Also in: dri-devel, intel-gfx, intel-xe, linux-arm-msm, linux-fsdevel, linux-mips, linux-mm, linux-samsung-soc, linux-sound, linux-tegra, linuxppc-dev, lkml, nouveau, virtualization, xen-devel
Subsystem: memory management, memory mapping, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, Liam R. Howlett, Lorenzo Stoakes, Linus Torvalds

Update various uses of legacy flags in vma.c and mmap.c to the new
vma_flags_t type, updating comments alongside them to be consistent.

Also update __install_special_mapping() to rearrange things slightly to
accommodate the changes.
