Ok, I'll drop this in v2

this forced-typecast to make sparse happy, because we use here only (int) part of vma->vm_flags.

Second patch in this patchset changes it.
vm_flags_t will be unsigned long or or unsigned long long depending on vma flags count.
But more likely it will be unsigned int, because I have another patchset in work,
which currently drop four bits in vm_flags, so we can postpone its expansion.
