Subject: [PATCH v6 1/3] mm/mmap: separate writenotify and dirty tracking logic
vma_wants_writenotify() is specifically intended for setting PTE page table
flags, accounting for existing PTE flag state and whether that might
already be read-only while mixing this check with a check whether the
filesystem performs dirty tracking.
Separate out the notions of dirty tracking and a PTE write notify checking
in order that we can invoke the dirty tracking check from elsewhere.
Note that this change introduces a very small duplicate check of the
separated out vm_ops_needs_writenotify(). This is necessary to avoid making
vma_needs_dirty_tracking() needlessly complicated (e.g. passing a
check_writenotify flag or having it assume this check was already
performed). This is such a small check that it doesn't seem too egregious
to do this.
