mm, virt: merge AS_UNMOVABLE and AS_INACCESSIBLE


The flags AS_UNMOVABLE and AS_INACCESSIBLE were both added just for guest_memfd;
AS_UNMOVABLE is already in existing versions of Linux, while AS_INACCESSIBLE was
acked for inclusion in 6.11.

But really, they are the same thing: only guest_memfd uses them, at least for
now, and guest_memfd pages are unmovable because they should not be
accessed by the CPU.

So merge them into one; use the AS_INACCESSIBLE name which is more comprehensive.
At the same time, this fixes an embarrassing bug where AS_INACCESSIBLE was used
as a bit mask, despite it being just a bit index.

The bug was mostly benign, because AS_INACCESSIBLE's bit representation (1010)
corresponded to setting AS_UNEVICTABLE (which is already set) and AS_ENOSPC
(except no async writes can happen on the guest_memfd).  So the AS_INACCESSIBLE
flag simply had no effect.

Fixes: 1d23040c ("KVM: guest_memfd: Use AS_INACCESSIBLE when creating guest_memfd inode")
Fixes: c72ceafb ("mm: Introduce AS_INACCESSIBLE for encrypted/confidential memory")
