Subject: [RFC] arm64: properly define SOFT_DIRTY for arm64

ARM64 has a soft-dirty bit (software dirty) but never properly defines
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SOFT_DIRTY or its necessary functions. This patch
introduces the ability to set/clear the soft dirty bit in a similar
manner as the other arches that utilize it.

However, we must be careful... there are cases where the DBM bit is not
available and the software dirty bit plays a essential role in determining
whether or not a page is dirty. In these cases we must not allow the
user to clear the software dirty bit. We can test for these cases by
utilizing the arch_faults_on_old_pte() function which test the availability
of DBM.
