fs/proc/task_mmu: add fast paths to get/clear PAGE_IS_WRITTEN flag

Thanks. The bisection is surprising, but the mentioned patch does
mess with pagemap.

How about we add this?

We have a report of this WARN() triggering. Let's print the offending
swp_entry_t to help diagnosis.

I'm curious if

1) make_uffd_wp_pte() won't end up overwriting existing pte markers, for
example, if PTE_MARKER_POISONED is set. [unrelated to this bug]

2) We get the error on arm64, which does *not* support uffd-wp. Do we
maybe end up calling make_uffd_wp_pte() and place a pte marker, even
though we don't have CONFIG_PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP?


static inline bool pte_marker_entry_uffd_wp(swp_entry_t entry)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP
return is_pte_marker_entry(entry) &&
(pte_marker_get(entry) & PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP);
#else
return false;
#endif
}

Will always return false without CONFIG_PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP.

But make_uffd_wp_pte() might just happily place an entry. Hm.


The following might fix the problem:

But I am *pretty* sure that that whole machinery should be fenced off. It does make 0 sense to mess with uffd-wp if there is no uffd-wp support.
