A Shadow Stack (SHSTK) 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 and a new VM flag
is necessary for tracking SHSTK VMAs.
v9:
- Add VM_SHSTK case to arch_vma_name().
- Revise the commit log to explain why a new VM flag is needed.
