I would prefer include/linux/shmem_fs.h for this (and one of us clean
up where the declarations of shmem_zero_setup and shmem_mapping live).
But if 4/5 goes away, then there will only be one user of shmem_vma(),
so in that case better just declare it (using shmem_mapping()) there
in task_mmu.c in the smaps patch.

I agree with Oleg,
vma->vm_file && shmem_mapping(file_inode(vma->vm_file)->i_mapping);
would be better,
