mm/core, x86/mm/pkeys: Store protection bits in high VMA flags
vma->vm_flags is an 'unsigned long', so has space for 32 flags
on 32-bit architectures. The high 32 bits are unused on 64-bit
platforms. We've steered away from using the unused high VMA
bits for things because we would have difficulty supporting it
on 32-bit.
Protection Keys are not available in 32-bit mode, so there is
no concern about supporting this feature in 32-bit mode or on
32-bit CPUs.
This patch carves out 4 bits from the high half of
vma->vm_flags and allows architectures to set config option
to make them available.
Sparse complains about these constants unless we explicitly
call them "UL".
