mm/smaps: don't access young/dirty bit if pte unpresent

[ Upstream commit efd41493 ]

These bits should only be valid when the ptes are present.  Introducing
two booleans for it and set it to false when !pte_present() for both pte
and pmd accountings.

The bug is found during code reading and no real world issue reported, but
logically such an error can cause incorrect readings for either smaps or
smaps_rollup output on quite a few fields.

For example, it could cause over-estimate on values like Shared_Dirty,
Private_Dirty, Referenced.  Or it could also cause under-estimate on
values like LazyFree, Shared_Clean, Private_Clean.
