Subject: [RFC V1 31/31] mm/mmap: Define macros for vm_flags access permission combinations
Date:   Mon, 24 Jan 2022 18:27:08 +0530

References: <1643029028-12710-1-git-send-email-anshuman.khandual@arm.com>
Precedence: bulk

These macros will be useful in cleaning up the all those switch statements
in vm_get_page_prot() across all platforms.
