remap_file_pages() + MAP_PRIVATE?

[Michael Kerrisk]

Gidday,

As currently implemented, the mapping given to remap_file_pages() must be 
MAP_SHARED.  Is there some reason why the kernel enforces the restriction 
that we can't apply this call to MAP_PRIVATE mappings?  (I can't see 
one...)  

Cheers,

Michael
