This extends the current PR_SET_MDWE prctl arg with a bit to indicate
that the process doesn't want MDWE protection to propagate to children.
To implement this no-inherit mode, the tag in current->mm->flags must be
absent from MMF_INIT_MASK. This means that the encoding for "MDWE but
without inherit" is different in the prctl than in the mm flags. This
leads to a bit of bit-mangling in the prctl implementation.

Why the desire for macros here? :)
We have a single user of MMF_INIT_FLAGS, why not inline or use a proper
inline function?
