Peter Feiner 68b5a65248 mm: softdirty: respect VM_SOFTDIRTY in PTE holes
After a VMA is created with the VM_SOFTDIRTY flag set, /proc/pid/pagemap
should report that the VMA's virtual pages are soft-dirty until
VM_SOFTDIRTY is cleared (i.e., by the next write of "4" to
/proc/pid/clear_refs).  However, pagemap ignores the VM_SOFTDIRTY flag
for virtual addresses that fall in PTE holes (i.e., virtual addresses
that don't have a PMD, PUD, or PGD allocated yet).

To observe this bug, use mmap to create a VMA large enough such that
there's a good chance that the VMA will occupy an unused PMD, then test
the soft-dirty bit on its pages.  In practice, I found that a VMA that
covered a PMD's worth of address space was big enough.

This patch adds the necessary VMA lookup to the PTE hole callback in
/proc/pid/pagemap's page walk and sets soft-dirty according to the VMAs'
VM_SOFTDIRTY flag.
