mm: remove VM_DENYWRITE
All in-tree users of MAP_DENYWRITE are gone. MAP_DENYWRITE cannot be set from user space, so all users are gone; let's remove it. Acked-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> Acked-by: Christian König <christian.koenig@amd.com> Signed-off-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com>
