Subject: [PATCH 4.20 61/92] riscv: Add pte bit to distinguish swap from invalid

4.20-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Stefan O'Rear <sorear2@...il.com>

commit e3613bb8afc2a9474c9214d65c8326c5ac02135e upstream.

Previously, invalid PTEs and swap PTEs had the same binary
representation, causing errors when attempting to unmap PROT_NONE
mappings, including implicit unmap on exit.

Typical error:

swap_info_get: Bad swap file entry 40000000007a9879
BUG: Bad page map in process a.out  pte:3d4c3cc0 pmd:3e521401
