I might need a patch like this for an independent fix, and the more I
look at this the more I hate the separate vm_flags and the optional vma
argument.

Yes, it is a little strange when made this changes,  a separate vm_flags
and another vma argument, most vm_flags is just vma->vm_flags(madvise is
a special case).


Yes, we should be able to handle the madvise stuff in a better way (simply check after the vma->vm_flags where modified).


Let me try to improve things.

Long term we can get rid of the vm_flags, it just needs some madvise()
massaging.


Thanks for your improvement, it is more accurate.

I will include that in my next small fix-series and CC you.
