[v12,3/8] mm: rust: add vm_insert_page

Commit Message

Alice Ryhl Jan. 15, 2025, 1:35 p.m. UTC

The vm_insert_page method is only usable on vmas with the VM_MIXEDMAP
flag, so we introduce a new type to keep track of such vmas.

The approach used in this patch assumes that we will not need to encode
many flag combinations in the type. I don't think we need to encode more
than VM_MIXEDMAP and VM_PFNMAP as things are now. However, if that
becomes necessary, using generic parameters in a single type would scale
better as the number of flags increases.
