Subject: [PATCH v3 3/4] pagemap: hide physical addresses from non-privileged
 users

From: Konstantin Khlebnikov <khlebnikov@...dex-team.ru>

This patch makes pagemap readable for normal users back but hides physical
addresses from them. For some use cases PFN isn't required at all: flags
give information about presence, page type (anon/file/swap), soft-dirty mark,
and hint about page mapcount state: exclusive(mapcount = 1) or (mapcount > 1).

Signed-off-by: Konstantin Khlebnikov <khlebnikov@...dex-team.ru>
Fixes: ab676b7d6fbf ("pagemap: do not leak physical addresses to non-privileged userspace")
