Subject: [PATCH 05/12] mm: update hugetlbfs to use VMA flags on mmap_prepare

In order to update all mmap_prepare users to utilising the new VMA flags
type vma_flags_t and associated helper functions, we start by updating
hugetlbfs which has a lot of additional logic that requires updating to
make this change.

This is laying the groundwork for eliminating the vm_flags_t from struct
vm_area_desc and using vma_flags_t only, which further lays the ground for
removing the deprecated vm_flags_t type altogether.

No functional changes intended.
