Ah, you're right. That's my fault. Thanks for noting that.

BTW, now I think the line could be expressed in this way:
vma->vm_flags & ~VM_MIXEDMAP

I feel this is sufficiently explicit and follows the meaning well.
However, I agree that Liang's first one is good enough, too.

Thanks,
SeongJae Park.
