From: Yu-cheng Yu <yu-cheng.yu@xxxxxxxxx>
The x86 Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET) feature includes a new
type of memory called shadow stack. This shadow stack memory has some
unusual properties, which requires some core mm changes to function
properly.
A shadow stack PTE must be read-only and have _PAGE_DIRTY set. However,
read-only and Dirty PTEs also exist for copy-on-write (COW) pages. These
two cases are handled differently for page faults. Introduce
VM_SHADOW_STACK to track shadow stack VMAs.

v6:
- Add comment about VM_SHADOW_STACK not being allowed with VM_SHARED
(David Hildenbrand)
v3:
- Drop arch specific change in arch_vma_name(). The memory can show as
anonymous (Kirill)
- Change CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SHADOW_STACK to CONFIG_X86_USER_SHADOW_STACK
in show_smap_vma_flags() (Boris)
