David Hildenbrand 789cfc6699 mm/ksm: handle device-exclusive entries correctly in write_protect_page()
Ever since commit b756a3b5e7 ("mm: device exclusive memory access") we
can return with a device-exclusive entry from page_vma_mapped_walk().

write_protect_page() is not prepared for that, so teach it about these PFN
swap PTEs.  Note that device-private entries are so far not applicable on
that path, because GUP would never have returned such folios (conversion
to device-private happens by page migration, not in-place conversion of
the PTE).

There is a race between performing the folio_walk (which fails on
non-present PTEs) and locking the folio to look it up using
page_vma_mapped_walk() again, so this is likely a fix (unless something
else could prevent that race, but it doesn't look like).  In the future it
could be handled if ever required, for now just give up and ignore them
like folio_walk would.

Linux kernel

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use make htmldocs or make pdfdocs. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
