The motivation here is to consolidate VMA flags and helpers in generic memory header and reduce code duplication when ever applicable. If there are other possible similar instances which might be missing here, please do let me me know. I will be happy to incorporate them. This patch (of 3): Move VM_NO_KHUGEPAGED into generic header (include/linux/mm.h). This just makes sure that no VMA flag is scattered in individual function files any longer. While at this, fix an old comment which is no longer valid. This should not cause any functional change.
