Subject: [PATCH -mm] vmscan: report vm_flags in page_referenced()
Collect the vma->vm_flags in every VMA that page_referenced() walked.
Note that the walked VMAs
- may not actually have the page installed in PTE
- may not be equal to all VMAs that covered the page
This is a preparation for more informed reclaim heuristics, eg. to
protect executable file pages more aggressively.
For now only VM_EXEC is used by the caller, in which case we don't care
whether the VMAs actually has that page installed in their PTEs. The fact
that the page is covered by some VM_EXEC VMA and therefore is likely part
of an executable's text section is enough information.
