That might have dropped Mike from the list. Sorry about that Mike, I'll add you to my usual list of suspects :) The v3 is here: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230125233554.153109-1-surenb@google.com/ and Andrew did suggest the same renames, so I'll be posting v4 with those changes later today. Thanks for the feedback! >

vm_flags are among VMA attributes which affect decisions like VMA merging and splitting. Therefore all vm_flags modifications are performed after taking exclusive mmap_lock to prevent vm_flags updates racing with such operations. Introduce modifier functions for vm_flags to be used whenever flags are updated. This way we can better check and control correct locking behavior during these updates.
