[PATCH] Define the shmem_inode_info flags directly

[Adam Litke]

Andrew: This is a pretty basic and obvious cleanup IMO.  How about a ride in
-mm?

Defining flags in terms of other flags is always confusing.  Give them literal
values instead of defining them in terms of VM_flags.  While we're at it, move
them to a header file in preparation for the introduction of a
SHMEM_HUGETLB flag.
