arm64: Fix the pte_hw_dirty() check when AF/DBM is enabled
Commit 2f4b829c625e ("arm64: Add support for hardware updates of the
access and dirty pte bits") introduced support for handling hardware
updates of the access flag and dirty status. The PTE is automatically
dirtied in hardware (if supported) by clearing the PTE_RDONLY bit when
the PTE_DBM/PTE_WRITE bit is set. The pte_hw_dirty() macro was added to
detect a hardware dirtied pte. The pte_dirty() macro checks for both
software PTE_DIRTY and pte_hw_dirty().
Functions like pte_modify() clear the PTE_RDONLY bit since it is meant
to be set in set_pte_at() when written to memory. In such cases,
pte_hw_dirty() would return true even though such pte is clean. This
patch changes pte_hw_dirty() to test the PTE_DBM/PTE_WRITE bit together
with PTE_RDONLY.
