Subject: [PATCH 4/7] mm: kill vma flag VM_INSERTPAGE

This patch merges VM_INSERTPAGE into VM_MIXEDMAP (and moves it near to VM_PFNMAP).
VM_MIXEDMAP vma anyway can mix pure-pfn ptes, special ptes and normal ptes.

this patch side-effects:
* copy_page_range() now always copies VM_MIXEDMAP vma on fork (why not?)
* in case HAVE_PTE_SPECIAL appears non-special ptes in VM_MIXEDMAP vma.
  seems like all ok, all code ready for this.
* in case !HAVE_PTE_SPECIAL: vm_normal_page() will check pfn_valid() after
  inserting pages via vm_insert_page()
* small change in vma_wants_writenotify(), seems like do_wp_page() can handle this.
