[PATCH v3 2/3] mm: update memfd seal write check to include F_SEAL_WRITE

From: Lorenzo Stoakes
Date: Sat Oct 07 2023 - 16:51:31 EST


The seal_check_future_write() function is called by shmem_mmap() or
hugetlbfs_file_mmap() to disallow any future writable mappings of an memfd
sealed this way.

The F_SEAL_WRITE flag is not checked here, as that is handled via the
mapping->i_mmap_writable mechanism and so any attempt at a mapping would
fail before this could be run.

However we intend to change this, meaning this check can be performed for
F_SEAL_WRITE mappings also.

The logic here is equally applicable to both flags, so update this function
to accommodate both and rename it accordingly.
