Kiryl Shutsemau (Meta) 763f43865f mm: preserve RWP marker across PTE rewrites ...

The uffd PTE bit must survive any kernel path that rewrites a PTE on a
VM_UFFD_RWP VMA, otherwise the marker that carries PAGE_NONE semantics is
silently dropped and the next access leaks past RWP tracking.  Wire the
preservation through every path that rewrites a VM_UFFD_RWP PTE.

Swap and device-exclusive: do_swap_page(), restore_exclusive_pte(), and
unuse_pte() (swapoff()) re-apply PAGE_NONE when the swap PTE carries the
uffd bit and the VMA has VM_UFFD_RWP.

Migration: remove_migration_pte() and remove_migration_pmd() do the same
after the migration entry is replaced with a real PTE/PMD.

Fork: __copy_present_ptes(), copy_present_page(), copy_nonpresent_pte(),
copy_huge_pmd(), copy_huge_non_present_pmd(), and
copy_hugetlb_page_range() keep the uffd bit on the child when the
destination VMA has VM_UFFD_RWP, matching the existing VM_UFFD_WP
handling.  Add VM_UFFD_RWP to VM_COPY_ON_FORK so the flag itself
propagates.

mprotect(): change_pte_range() and change_huge_pmd() restore PAGE_NONE
after pte_modify()/pmd_modify() have recomputed the base protection from a
(possibly user-changed) vm_page_prot.  pte_modify() preserves _PAGE_UFFD,
so the bit stays; we just have to force PAGE_NONE back on top.
