[patch 3/6] powerpc: Define flags for Strong Access Ordering

[shaggy@linux.vnet.ibm.com]

This patch defines:

- PROT_SAO, which is passed into mmap() and mprotect() in the prot field
- VM_SAO in vma->vm_flags, and
- _PAGE_SAO, the combination of WIMG bits in the pte that enables strong
access ordering for the page.

NOTE: There doesn't seem to be a precedent for architecture-dependent vm_flags.
It may be better to define VM_SAO somewhere in include/asm-powerpc/.  Since
vm_flags is a long, defining it in the high-order word would help prevent a
collision with any newly added values in architecture-independent code.
