According to commit message in the original commitc75b1d9421("fs: add fcntl() interface for setting/getting write life time hints"), as well as userspace library[1] and man page update[2], R/W hint constants are intended to have RWH_* prefix. However, RWF_WRITE_LIFE_NOT_SET retained "RWF_*" prefix used in the early versions of the proposed patch set[3]. Rename it and provide the old name as a synonym for the new one for backward compatibility.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
