userfaultfd: non-cooperative: rename *EVENT_MADVDONTNEED to *EVENT_REMOVE
Patch series "userfaultfd: non-cooperative: add madvise() event for MADV_REMOVE request". These patches add notification of madvise(MADV_REMOVE) event to non-cooperative userfaultfd monitor. The first pacth renames EVENT_MADVDONTNEED to EVENT_REMOVE along with relevant functions and structures. Using _REMOVE instead of _MADVDONTNEED describes the event semantics more clearly and I hope it's not too late for such change in the ABI. This patch (of 3): The UFFD_EVENT_MADVDONTNEED purpose is to notify uffd monitor about removal of certain range from address space tracked by userfaultfd. Hence, UFFD_EVENT_REMOVE seems to better reflect the operation semantics. Respectively, 'madv_dn' field of uffd_msg is renamed to 'remove' and the madvise_userfault_dontneed callback is renamed to userfaultfd_remove.
