Jia He 30e235389f arm64: mm: add missing PTE_SPECIAL in pte_mkdevmap on arm64
Without this patch, the MAP_SYNC test case will cause a print_bad_pte
warning on arm64 as follows:

The root cause is in _vm_normal_page, without the PTE_SPECIAL bit,
the return value will be incorrectly set to pfn_to_page(pfn) instead
of NULL. Besides, this patch also rewrite the pmd_mkdevmap to avoid
setting PTE_SPECIAL for pmd

The MAP_SYNC test case is as follows(Provided by Yibo Cai)
$#include <stdio.h>
$#include <string.h>
$#include <unistd.h>
$#include <sys/file.h>
$#include <sys/mman.h>

$#ifndef MAP_SYNC
$#define MAP_SYNC 0x80000
$#endif

/* mount -o dax /dev/pmem0 /mnt */
$#define F "/mnt/__aaabbbcccddd__"

int main(void)
{
    int fd;
    char buf[4096];
    void *addr;

    if ((fd = open(F, O_CREAT|O_TRUNC|O_RDWR, 0644)) < 0) {
        perror("open1");
        return 1;
    }

    if (write(fd, buf, 4096) != 4096) {
        perror("lseek");
        return 1;
    }

    addr = mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED|MAP_SYNC, fd, 0);
    if (addr == MAP_FAILED) {
        perror("mmap");
        printf("did you mount with '-o dax'?\n");
        return 1;
    }

    memset(addr, 0x55, 4096);

    if (munmap(addr, 4096) == -1) {
        perror("munmap");
        return 1;
    }

    close(fd);

    return 0;
}

README

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.
