[PATCH 1/3] vmscan: report vm_flags in page_referenced()
From: Wu Fengguang
Date: Sat May 16 2009 - 05:08:22 EST
Collect vma->vm_flags of the VMAs that actually referenced the page.
This is preparing for more informed reclaim heuristics,
eg. to protect executable file pages more aggressively.
For now only the VM_EXEC bit will be used by the caller.
