Anshuman Khandual 27634d63ca mm/debug_vm_pgtable/basic: add validation for dirtiness after write protect
[ Upstream commit bb5c47ced46797409f4791d0380db3116d93134c ]

Patch series "mm/debug_vm_pgtable: Some minor updates", v3.

This series contains some cleanups and new test suggestions from Catalin
from an earlier discussion.

This patch (of 2):

This adds validation tests for dirtiness after write protect conversion
for each page table level.  There are two new separate test types involved
here.

The first test ensures that a given page table entry does not become dirty
after pxx_wrprotect().  This is important for platforms like arm64 which
transfers and drops the hardware dirty bit (!PTE_RDONLY) to the software
dirty bit while making it an write protected one.  This test ensures that
no fresh page table entry could be created with hardware dirty bit set.
The second test ensures that a given page table entry always preserve the
dirty information across pxx_wrprotect().

This adds two previously missing PUD level basic tests and while here
fixes pxx_wrprotect() related typos in the documentation file.
