Subject: rmap: fixup page_referenced() for nommu systems
From: Mike Frysinger <vapier@xxxxxxxxxx>

After the recent changes that went into mm/vmscan.c to overhaul stuff, we
ended up with these warnings on no-mmu systems:
mm/vmscan.c: In function `shrink_page_list':
mm/vmscan.c:580: warning: unused variable `vm_flags'
mm/vmscan.c: In function `shrink_active_list':
mm/vmscan.c:1294: warning: `vm_flags' may be used uninitialized in this function
mm/vmscan.c:1242: note: `vm_flags' was declared here

This is because the no-mmu function defines page_referenced() to work on
the first argument only (the page).  It does not clear the vm_flags given
to it because for no-mmu systems, they never actually get utilized.  Since
that is no longer strictly true, we need to set vm_flags to 0 like
everyone else so gcc can do proper dead code elimination without annoying
us with unused warnings.
