In that case, we should probably also use ACCESS_ONCE, if
only to be explicit about it.

See the new version below:

Subject: mm: fix use-after-free in sys_remap_file_pages

remap_file_pages calls mmap_region, which may merge the VMA with other existing
VMAs, and free "vma". This can lead to a use-after-free bug. Avoid the bug by
remembering vm_flags before calling mmap_region, and not trying to dereference
vma later.
