Subject: [PATCH v1 25/32] mm: shmem: use SHMEM_F_* flags instead of VM_* flags

From: Pratyush Yadav <ptyadav@...zon.de>

shmem_inode_info::flags can have the VM flags VM_NORESERVE and
VM_LOCKED. These are used to suppress pre-accounting or to lock the
pages in the inode respectively. Using the VM flags directly makes it
difficult to add shmem-specific flags that are unrelated to VM behavior
since one would need to find a VM flag not used by shmem and re-purpose
it.

Introduce SHMEM_F_NORESERVE and SHMEM_F_LOCKED which represent the same
information, but their bits are independent of the VM flags. Callers can
still pass VM_NORESERVE to shmem_get_inode(), but it gets transformed to
the shmem-specific flag internally.

No functional changes intended.
