Kirill A. Shutemov da162e9368 mm: drop zap_details::ignore_dirty
The only user of ignore_dirty is oom-reaper.  But it doesn't really use
it.

ignore_dirty only has effect on file pages mapped with dirty pte.  But
oom-repear skips shared VMAs, so there's no way we can dirty file pte in
them.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
