VM_SHADOW_STACK is defined by x86 as vm flag to mark a shadow stack vma. x86 uses VM_HIGH_ARCH_5 bit but that limits shadow stack vma to 64bit only. arm64 follows same path https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20231009-arm64-gcs-v6-12-78e55deaa4dd@xxxxxxxxxx/#r To keep things simple, RISC-V follows the same.
