mm/userfaultfd: fix uffd-wp special cases for fork()

We tried to do something similar in b569a176 ("userfaultfd: wp: drop
_PAGE_UFFD_WP properly when fork") previously, but it's not doing it all
right..  A few fixes around the code path:

1. We were referencing VM_UFFD_WP vm_flags on the _old_ vma rather
   than the new vma.  That's overlooked in b569a176, so it won't work
   as expected.  Thanks to the recent rework on fork code
   (7a4830c3), we can easily get the new vma now, so switch the
   checks to that.

2. Dropping the uffd-wp bit in copy_huge_pmd() could be wrong if the
   huge pmd is a migration huge pmd.  When it happens, instead of using
   pmd_uffd_wp(), we should use pmd_swp_uffd_wp().  The fix is simply to
   handle them separately.

3. Forget to carry over uffd-wp bit for a write migration huge pmd
   entry.  This also happens in copy_huge_pmd(), where we converted a
   write huge migration entry into a read one.

4. In copy_nonpresent_pte(), drop uffd-wp if necessary for swap ptes.

5. In copy_present_page() when COW is enforced when fork(), we also
   need to pass over the uffd-wp bit if VM_UFFD_WP is armed on the new
   vma, and when the pte to be copied has uffd-wp bit set.

Remove the comment in copy_present_pte() about this.  It won't help a huge
lot to only comment there, but comment everywhere would be an overkill.
Let's assume the commit messages would help.
