mm: Clear arch specific VM flags on protection change
When protection bits are changed on a VMA, some of the architecture specific flags should be cleared as well. An examples of this are the PKEY flags on x86. This patch expands the current code that clears PKEY flags for x86, to support similar functionality for other architectures as well.
