Sorry for confusion here. These are not shared mappings as pointed out
by Russell in a private email. I got confused by the above flags which I
have misinterpreted as bit 0 set => MAP_SHARED. These are vm_flags
obviously so the bit 0 is VM_READ. Sorry about the confusion. The real
reason we are doing the alignment is that we do a file mapping
	/*
	 * We only need to do colour alignment if either the I or D
	 * caches alias.
	 */
	if (aliasing)
		do_align = filp || (flags & MAP_SHARED);

I am not really familiar with this architecture to understand why do we
need aliasing for file mappings, though.
