Linux kernel source tree
A MAP_SHARED mapping always has VM_MAYSHARE set, and writable (VM_MAYWRITE) MAP_SHARED mappings have VM_SHARED set as well. To identify a MAP_SHARED mapping, it's sufficient to look at VM_MAYSHARE. We cannot have VM_MAYSHARE|VM_WRITE mappings without having VM_SHARED set. Consequently, current code will never actually end up clearing VM_MAYSHARE and that code is confusing, because nobody is supposed to mess with VM_MAYWRITE. Let's clean it up and restructure the code. No functional change intended.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
