Suren Baghdasaryan bc292ab00f mm: introduce vma->vm_flags wrapper functions
vm_flags are among VMA attributes which affect decisions like VMA merging
and splitting.  Therefore all vm_flags modifications are performed after
taking exclusive mmap_lock to prevent vm_flags updates racing with such
operations.  Introduce modifier functions for vm_flags to be used whenever
flags are updated.  This way we can better check and control correct
locking behavior during these updates.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
