x86 has used VM_SHADOW_STACK (alias to VM_HIGH_ARCH_5) to encode shadow stack VMA. VM_SHADOW_STACK is thus not possible on 32bit. Some arches may need a way to encode shadow stack on 32bit and 64bit both and they may encode this information differently in VMAs.
This patch changes checks of VM_SHADOW_STACK flag in generic code to call to a function `arch_is_shadow_stack` which will return true if arch supports shadow stack and vma is shadow stack else stub returns false.
There was a suggestion to name it as `vma_is_shadow_stack`. I preferred to keep `arch` prefix in there because it's each arch specific.
