[PATCH v3 09/29] mm: abstract shadow stack vma behind `vma_is_shadow_stack`

Deepak Gupta debug at rivosinc.com
Wed Apr 3 16:34:57 PDT 2024


VM_SHADOW_STACK (alias to VM_HIGH_ARCH_5) to encode shadow stack VMA.

This patch changes checks of VM_SHADOW_STACK flag in generic code to call
to a function `vma_is_shadow_stack` which will return true if its a
shadow stack vma and default stub (when support doesnt exist) returns false.
