mm: Preserve _PAGE_DEVMAP across mprotect() calls



Currently _PAGE_DEVMAP bit is not preserved in mprotect(2) calls. As a
result we will see warnings such as:

when mprotect(2) gets used on DAX mappings. Also there is a wide variety
of other failures that can result from the missing _PAGE_DEVMAP flag
when the area gets used by get_user_pages() later.

Fix the problem by including _PAGE_DEVMAP in a set of flags that get
preserved by mprotect(2).
