Yeah, good point. I guess I'll just define it in asm-generic (which covers
x86 as well) and just define MAP_SYNC to 0 if not defined in linux/mman.h.
That should make the code compile and make sure userspace gets error if he
tries to use MAP_SYNC somehow on arch without its definition. Attached is a
new version of the patch.

Thanks.

Patch

Subject: [PATCH] mm: Define MAP_SYNC and VM_SYNC flags

Define new MAP_SYNC flag and corresponding VMA VM_SYNC flag. As the
MAP_SYNC flag is not part of LEGACY_MAP_MASK, currently it will be
refused by all MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE map attempts and silently ignored for
everything else.
