The flags AS_UNMOVABLE and AS_INACCESSIBLE were both added just for guest_memfd;
AS_UNMOVABLE is already in existing versions of Linux, while AS_INACCESSIBLE was
acked for inclusion in 6.11.
But really, they are the same thing: only guest_memfd uses them, at least for
now, and guest_memfd pages are unmovable because they should not be
accessed by the CPU.
So merge them into one; use the AS_INACCESSIBLE name which is more comprehensive.
At the same time, this fixes an embarrassing bug where AS_INACCESSIBLE was used
as a bit mask, despite it being just a bit index.
The bug was mostly benign, because AS_INACCESSIBLE's bit representation (1010)
corresponded to setting AS_UNEVICTABLE (which is already set) and AS_ENOSPC
(except no async writes can happen on the guest_memfd). So the AS_INACCESSIBLE
flag simply had no effect.

Fixes: c72ceafbd12c ("mm: Introduce AS_INACCESSIBLE for encrypted/confidential memory")

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 reStructuredText 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.
