mm: softdirty: keep bit when zapping file pte
This fixes the same bug as b43790ee ("mm: softdirty: don't forget to save file map softdiry bit on unmap") and 9aed8614 ("mm/memory.c: don't forget to set softdirty on file mapped fault") where the return value of pte_*mksoft_dirty was being ignored. To be sure that no other pte/pmd "mk" function return values were being ignored, I annotated the functions in arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h with __must_check and rebuilt. The userspace effect of this bug is that the softdirty mark might be lost if a file mapped pte get zapped. Signed-off-by:Peter Feiner <pfeiner@google.com> Acked-by:
