Why do you use

pte_mkwrite_novma(pte)

instead of

pte_mkwrite(pte, args->vma)

?

Just wanted to have more coverage for pte_mkwrite_novma() helper which was missing
till now in this test. But just wondering is there a specific reason for replacing
this with pte_mkwrite() helper instead here ? Also we could probably add tests for
both these helper variations if that is preferred.

IIUC, pte_mkwrite() is a more formal interface.  pte_mkwrite_novma() is
used to implement pte_mkwrite().  So, IMHO, we should use the more
formal pte_mkwrite() interface if possible.

pte_mkwrite() does different things based on VMA flags on some archs 
(e.g., x86). So to test the "interesting" stuff one would have to craft 
a special VMA.

Without any special flags pte_mkwrite() really is just pte_mkwrite_novma().

Thanks for explanation.  If so, I'm fine to use pte_mkwrite_novma() in
the tests.

Why not add

        WARN_ON(!pmd_dirty(pmd_mkwrite_novma(pmd_mkdirty(pte))));

too?
