Well, however you think the code is cleaner really.
The copy/paste didn't work well, tabs disappeared (or rather the
Exchange server corrupting outgoing emails) but I'll try to comment
below:

I'd move the pte_offset_map_lock() inside the 'if' block as we don't
want to affect architectures that handle old ptes automatically.

Since the locking would be moved in the 'if' block above, we need
another check here before unlocking:
if (arch_faults_on_old_pte() && !pte_young(vmf->orig_pte))
pte_unmap_unlock(vmf->pte, vmf->ptl);
You could probably replace the two calls to arch_faults_on_old_pte()
with a single bool variable initialisation, something like:
force_mkyoung = arch_faults_on_old_pte() &&
!pte_young(vmf->orig_pte)
and only check for "if (force_mkyoung)" in both cases.
