Subject: [PATCH 5.10 288/306] mm/hmm: bypass devmap pte when all pfn requested flags are fulfilled

From: Li Zhijian <lizhijian@...fujitsu.com>

commit 4b42fb213678d2b6a9eeea92a9be200f23e49583 upstream.

Previously, we noticed the one rpma example was failed[1] since commit
36f30e486dce ("IB/core: Improve ODP to use hmm_range_fault()"), where it
will use ODP feature to do RDMA WRITE between fsdax files.

After digging into the code, we found hmm_vma_handle_pte() will still
return EFAULT even though all the its requesting flags has been
fulfilled.  That's because a DAX page will be marked as (_PAGE_SPECIAL |
PAGE_DEVMAP) by pte_mkdevmap().

Fixes: 405506274922 ("mm/hmm: add missing call to hmm_pte_need_fault in HMM_PFN_SPECIAL handling")
