mm: polish virtual memory accounting
* add VM_STACK as alias for VM_GROWSUP/DOWN depending on architecture * always account VMAs with flag VM_STACK as stack (as it was before) * cleanup classifying helpers * update comments and documentation Signed-off-by: Konstantin Khlebnikov <koct9i@gmail.com> Tested-by: Sudip Mukherjee <sudipm.mukherjee@gmail.com> Cc: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
