Patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions", v2. Introduce the PAGE_IS_GUARD flag in the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to expose information about guard regions. This allows userspace tools, such as CRIU, to detect and handle guard regions. Currently, CRIU utilizes PAGEMAP_SCAN as a more efficient alternative to parsing /proc/pid/pagemap. Without this change, guard regions are incorrectly reported as swap-anon regions, leading CRIU to attempt dumping them and subsequently failing. The series includes updates to the documentation and selftests to reflect the new functionality. This patch (of 3): Introduce the PAGE_IS_GUARD flag in the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to expose information about guard regions. This allows userspace tools, such as CRIU, to detect and handle guard regions.
