[PATCH v3 04/14] mm: Convert vmf_insert_mixed() from using pte_devmap to pte_special

[Alistair Popple <apopple@nvidia.com>]

DAX no longer requires device PTEs as it always has a ZONE_DEVICE page
associated with the PTE that can be reference counted normally. Other users
of pte_devmap are drivers that set PFN_DEV when calling vmf_insert_mixed()
which ensures vm_normal_page() returns NULL for these entries.

There is no reason to distinguish these pte_devmap users so in order to
free up a PTE bit use pte_special instead for entries created with
vmf_insert_mixed(). This will ensure vm_normal_page() will continue to
return NULL for these pages.

Architectures that don't support pte_special also don't support pte_devmap
so those will continue to rely on pfn_valid() to determine if the page can
be mapped.
