* rest of the world about it:
* VM_IO tells people not to look at these pages
* (accesses can have side effects).
- * VM_RESERVED is specified all over the place, because
- * in 2.4 it kept swapout's vma scan off this vma; but
- * in 2.6 the LRU scan won't even find its pages, so this
- * flag means no more than count its pages in reserved_vm,
- * and omit it from core dump, even when VM_IO turned off.
* VM_PFNMAP tells the core MM that the base pages are just
* raw PFN mappings, and do not have a "struct page" associated
* with them.
+ * VM_DONTEXPAND
+ * Disable vma merging and expanding with mremap().
+ * VM_DONTDUMP
+ * Omit vma from core dump, even when VM_IO turned off.
*
* There's a horrible special case to handle copy-on-write
* behaviour that some programs depend on. We mark the "original"
