Subject: tools/testing/vma: eliminate dependency on vma->__vm_flags
Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2025 10:01:01 +0000

The userland VMA test code relied on an internal implementation detail -
the existence of vma->__vm_flags to directly access VMA flags.  There is
no need to do so when we have the vm_flags_*() helper functions available.

This is ugly, but also a subsequent commit will eliminate this field
altogether so this will shortly become broken.

This patch has us utilise the helper functions instead.
