------------------------------------------------------
From: "Lorenzo Stoakes (ARM)" <ljs@kernel.org>
Subject: mm/migrate: convert VMA flag tests to use vma_flags_t
Date: Thu, 05 Nov 2026 21:30:55 +0000

Replace use of the legacy vm_flags_t flags with vma_flags_t values in the
migration logic.

We retain the READ_ONCE() of vma->vm_flags in remove_migration_pte(), as
there is no vma_flags_t equivalent, and arch_make_huge_pte() continues to
take legacy flags for the time being.

No functional change intended.
