    Hi Andrew,

    Here is the patch to add SHM_NORESERVE functionality
    similar to MAP_NORESERVE for shared memory segments.

    This mainly to avoid abuse of OVERCOMMIT_ALWAYS and
    this flag is ignored for OVERCOMMIT_NEVER.
    Hugh reviewed the patch earlier and had no objections
    to it. Could you include this ?

    Thanks,
    Badari
