Subject: [PATCH] mm: Fix potential pte_unmap_unlock pte error

Since commit 42e4089c7890 ("x86/speculation/l1tf: Disallow non privileged
high MMIO PROT_NONE mappings"), when the first pfn modify is not allowed,
we would break the loop with pte unchanged. Then the wrong pte - 1 would
be passed to pte_unmap_unlock.

Fixes: 42e4089c789 ("x86/speculation/l1tf: Disallow non privileged high MMIO PROT_NONE mappings")
