[RFC,V1,03/31] mm/mmap: Add new config ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT

Commit Message

Anshuman Khandual Jan. 24, 2022, 12:56 p.m. UTC

Add a new config ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT, which when subscribed enables a
given platform to define its own vm_get_page_prot(). This framework will
help remove protection_map[] dependency going forward.
