Commit bc292ab00f6c("mm: introduce vma->vm_flags wrapper functions")
turns the vm_flags into a const variable.
Added bpf_find_vma test in commit f108662b27c9("selftests/bpf: Add tests
for bpf_find_vma") to assign values to variables that declare const in
find_vma_fail1.c programs, which is an error to the compiler and does not
test BPF verifiers. It is better to replace 'const vm_flags_t vm_flags'
with 'unsigned long vm_start' for testing.

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.
