Subject[PATCH RFC] mm: add MAP_EXCLUSIVE to create exclusive user mappings
Date
From: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.ibm.com>

Hi,

The patch below aims to allow applications to create mappins that have
pages visible only to the owning process. Such mappings could be used to
store secrets so that these secrets are not visible neither to other
processes nor to the kernel.

I've only tested the basic functionality, the changes should be verified
against THP/migration/compaction. Yet, I'd appreciate early feedback.
