	commit 9295b7a07c859a42346221b5839be0ae612333b0 upstream. Programs using /proc/kpageflags need to know about the various flags. The <linux/kernel-page-flags.h> provides them and the comments in the file indicate that it is supposed to be used by user-level code. But the file is not installed. Install the headers and mark the unstable flags as out-of-bounds. The page-type tool is also adjusted to not duplicate the definitions Signed-off-by: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@gmail.com> Acked-by: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> [bwh: Backported to 3.2: adjust context; drop change to missing tools/vm/] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>
2009-12-16	mm: export stable page flags	Wu Fengguang
	Rename get_uflags() to stable_page_flags() and make it a global function for use in the hwpoison page flags filter, which need to compare user page flags with the value provided by user space. Also move KPF_* to kernel-page-flags.h for use by user space tools.
