Subject: [PATCH v4 11/39] x86/mm: Update pte_modify for _PAGE_COW

From: Yu-cheng Yu <yu-cheng.yu@...el.com>

The Write=0,Dirty=1 PTE has been used to indicate copy-on-write pages.
However, newer x86 processors also regard a Write=0,Dirty=1 PTE as a
shadow stack page. In order to separate the two, the software-defined
_PAGE_DIRTY is changed to _PAGE_COW for the copy-on-write case, and
pte_*() are updated to do this.

pte_modify() takes a "raw" pgprot_t which was not necessarily created
with any of the existing PTE bit helpers. That means that it can return a
pte_t with Write=0,Dirty=1, a shadow stack PTE, when it did not intend to
create one.

However pte_modify() changes a PTE to 'newprot', but it doesn't use the
pte_*(). Modify it to also move _PAGE_DIRTY to _PAGE_COW. Apply the same
changes to pmd_modify().

v4:
 - Fix an issue in soft-dirty test, where pte_modify() would detect
   _PAGE_COW in pte_dirty() and set the soft dirty bit in pte_mkdirty().

v2:
 - Update commit log with text and suggestions from (Dave Hansen)
 - Drop fixup_dirty_pte() in favor of clearing the HW dirty bit along
   with the _PAGE_CHG_MASK masking, then calling pte_mkdirty() (Dave
   Hansen)
