Inside of vma_is_secretmem and secretmem_mapping, instead of checking
whether a vm_area_struct/address_space has the secretmem ops structure
attached to it, check whether the address_space has the AS_INACCESSIBLE
bit set. Then set the AS_INACCESSIBLE flag for secretmem's
address_space.

This means that get_user_pages and friends are disables for all
adress_spaces that set AS_INACCESIBLE. The AS_INACCESSIBLE flag was
introduced in commit c72ceafbd12c ("mm: Introduce AS_INACCESSIBLE for
encrypted/confidential memory") specifically for guest_memfd to indicate
that no reads and writes should ever be done to guest_memfd
address_spaces. Disallowing gup seems like a reasonable semantic
extension, and means that potential future mmaps of guest_memfd cannot
be GUP'd.

That sounds wrong. You should leave *secretmem alone and instead have something like inaccessible_mapping that is used where appropriate.

vma_is_secretmem() should not suddenly succeed on something that is not mm/secretmem.c
