[PATCH 16/41] mm: replace vma->vm_flags indirect modification in ksm_madvise

[Suren Baghdasaryan <surenb@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Replace indirect modifications to vma->vm_flags with calls to modifier
functions to be able to track flag changes and to keep vma locking
correctness. Add a BUG_ON check in ksm_madvise() to catch indirect
vm_flags modification attempts.
