Extend the guard region self tests to explicitly assert that guard regions work correctly for functionality specific to file-backed and shmem mappings. In addition to testing all of the existing guard region functionality that is currently tested against anonymous mappings against file-backed and shmem mappings (except those which are exclusive to anonymous mapping), we now also: * Test that MADV_SEQUENTIAL does not cause unexpected readahead behaviour. * Test that MAP_PRIVATE behaves as expected with guard regions installed in both a shared and private mapping of an fd. * Test that a read-only file can correctly establish guard regions. * Test a probable fault-around case does not interfere with guard regions (or vice-versa). * Test that truncation does not eliminate guard regions. * Test that hole punching functions as expected in the presence of guard regions. * Test that a read-only mapping of a memfd write sealed mapping can have guard regions established within it and function correctly without violation of the seal. * Test that guard regions installed into a mapping of the anonymous zero page function correctly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
