The check for whether a hugetlb vma lock exists partially depends on the vma's flags. Currently, it checks for either VM_MAYSHARE or VM_SHARED. The reason both flags are used is because VM_MAYSHARE was previously cleared in hugetlb vmas as they are tore down. This is no longer the case, and only the VM_MAYSHARE check is required.
