2026-10-12tools/lib/mm: add shared file helpersSarthak Sharma
Move read_file(), write_file(), read_num(), write_num() and write_num_ignore_einval() out of tools/testing/selftests/mm/vm_util.c into a new shared helper under tools/lib/mm/. These helpers are used by mm selftests today and will also be needed by shared hugepage helpers in subsequent patches. Move them to a generic location so they can be reused outside selftests as well. Keep the helpers exposed to mm selftests through vm_util.h by including the new shared header there, and link the new helper into the selftests/mm build. Update the explicit x86 protection_keys 32-bit and 64-bit build rules to preserve prerequisite paths, now that file_utils.c is built from tools/lib/mm. Add tools/lib/mm/ to the MEMORY MANAGEMENT - MISC entry in MAINTAINERS.
