There are many places where all basic VMA access flags (read, write, exec)
are initialized or checked against as a group. One such example is during
page fault. Existing vma_is_accessible() wrapper already creates the notion
of VMA accessibility as a group access permissions. Hence lets just create
VM_ACCESS_FLAGS (VM_READ|VM_WRITE|VM_EXEC) which will not only reduce code
duplication but also extend the VMA accessibility concept in general.
