[PATCH 2/2] hugetlb: update vma flag check for hugetlb vma lock

From: Mike Kravetz
Date: Mon Dec 12 2022 - 18:51:29 EST


The check for whether a hugetlb vma lock exists partially depends on
the vma's flags. Currently, it checks for either VM_MAYSHARE or
VM_SHARED. The reason both flags are used is because VM_MAYSHARE was
previously cleared in hugetlb vmas as they are tore down. This is no
longer the case, and only the VM_MAYSHARE check is required.
