You know "flags & MF_ACTION_REQUIRED" will always be true, so you can just
pass in MF_ACTION_REQUIRED or even just "true".

You know "flags & MF_MUST_KILL" will always be true, so you can just pass in
MF_MUST_KILL or even just "true".

Also, you can get rid of the constant "unmap_success" if you want and just
pass in false as the 3rd argument.
