mm: vma flag tweaks

The ongoing work around introducing non-system word VMA flags has introduced a number of helper functions and macros to make life easier when working with these flags and to make conversions from the legacy use of VM_xxx flags more straightforward.

This series improves these to reduce confusion as to what they do and to improve consistency and readability.

Firstly the series renames vma_flags_test() to vma_flags_test_any() to make it abundantly clear that this function tests whether any of the flags are set (as opposed to vma_flags_test_all()).

It then renames vma_desc_test_flags() to vma_desc_test_any() for the same reason. Note that we drop the 'flags' suffix here, as vma_desc_test_any_flags() would be cumbersome and 'test' implies a flag test.

Similarly, we rename vma_test_all_flags() to vma_test_all() for consistency.

Next, we have a couple of instances (erofs, zonefs) where we are now testing for vma_desc_test_any(desc, VMA_SHARED_BIT) && vma_desc_test_any(desc, VMA_MAYWRITE_BIT).

This is silly, so this series introduces vma_desc_test_all() so these callers can instead invoke vma_desc_test_all(desc, VMA_SHARED_BIT, VMA_MAYWRITE_BIT).

We then observe that quite a few instances of vma_flags_test_any() and vma_desc_test_any() are in fact only testing against a single flag.

Using the _any() variant here is just confusing - 'any' of single item reads strangely and is liable to cause confusion.

So in these instances the series reintroduces vma_flags_test() and vma_desc_test() as helpers which test against a single flag.

The fact that vma_flags_t is a struct and that vma_flag_t utilises sparse to avoid confusion with vm_flags_t makes it impossible for a user to misuse these helpers without it getting flagged somewhere.

The series also updates __mk_vma_flags() and functions invoked by it to explicitly mark them always inline to match expectation and to be consistent with other VMA flag helpers.

It also renames vma_flag_set() to vma_flags_set_flag() (a function only used by __mk_vma_flags()) to be consistent with other VMA flag helpers.

Finally it updates the VMA tests for each of these changes, and introduces explicit tests for vma_flags_test() and vma_desc_test() to assert that they behave as expected.

Lorenzo Stoakes (Oracle) (6):
mm: rename VMA flag helpers to be more readable
mm: add vma_desc_test_all() and use it
mm: always inline __mk_vma_flags() and invoked functions
mm: reintroduce vma_flags_test() as a singular flag test
mm: reintroduce vma_desc_test() as a singular flag test tools/testing/vma: add test for vma_flags_test(), vma_desc_test()
