Patch series "mm/nommu: don't use VM_MAYSHARE for MAP_PRIVATE mappings".
Trying to reduce the confusion around VM_SHARED and VM_MAYSHARE first
requires !CONFIG_MMU to stop using VM_MAYSHARE for MAP_PRIVATE mappings.
CONFIG_MMU only sets VM_MAYSHARE for MAP_SHARED mappings.
This paves the way for further VM_MAYSHARE and VM_SHARED cleanups: for
example, renaming VM_MAYSHARED to VM_MAP_SHARED to make it cleaner what is
actually means.
Let's first get the weird case out of the way and not use VM_MAYSHARE in
MAP_PRIVATE mappings, using a new VM_MAYOVERLAY flag instead.
This patch (of 3):
We want to stop using VM_MAYSHARE in private mappings to pave the way for
clarifying the semantics of VM_MAYSHARE vs. VM_SHARED and reduce the
confusion. While CONFIG_MMU uses VM_MAYSHARE to represent MAP_SHARED,
!CONFIG_MMU also sets VM_MAYSHARE for selected R/O private file mappings
that are an effective overlay of a file mapping.
Let's factor out all relevant VM_MAYSHARE checks in !CONFIG_MMU code into
is_nommu_shared_mapping() first.
Note that whenever VM_SHARED is set, VM_MAYSHARE must be set as well
(unless there is a serious BUG). So there is not need to test for
VM_SHARED manually.
No functional change intended.
