Ralph Campbell aab8d0520e mm/rmap: map_pte() was not handling private ZONE_DEVICE page properly
Private ZONE_DEVICE pages use a special pte entry and thus are not
present.  Properly handle this case in map_pte(), it is already handled in
check_pte(), the map_pte() part was lost in some rebase most probably.

Without this patch the slow migration path can not migrate back to any
private ZONE_DEVICE memory to regular memory.  This was found after stress
testing migration back to system memory.  This ultimatly can lead to the
CPU constantly page fault looping on the special swap entry.

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 Restructured Text 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.
