[09/12] mm: Update vm_normal_page() callers to accept FS DAX pages

Currently if a PTE points to a FS DAX page vm_normal_page() will
return NULL as these have their own special refcounting scheme. A
future change will allow FS DAX pages to be refcounted the same as any
other normal page.

Therefore vm_normal_page() will start returning FS DAX pages. To avoid
any change in behaviour callers that don't expect FS DAX pages will
need to explicitly check for this. As vm_normal_page() can already
return ZONE_DEVICE pages most callers already include a check for any
ZONE_DEVICE page.

However some callers don't, so add explicit checks where required.

I would expect justification for each of these conversions, and
hopefully with fsdax returning fully formed folios there is less need to
sprinkle these checks around.

At a minimum I think this patch needs to be broken up by file touched.

...for example, I do not immediately see why follow_phys() would need to
be careful with fsdax pages?

...but I do see why copy_page_range() (which calls follow_phys() through
track_pfn_copy()) might care. It just turns out that vma_needs_copy(),
afaics, bypasses dax MAP_SHARED mappings.

So this touch of memtype.c looks like it can be dropped.

The above can be replaced with a catch like

   if (folio_test_device(folio))
	return;

...in smaps_account() since ZONE_DEVICE pages are not suitable to
account as they do not reflect any memory pressure on the system memory
pool.

The whole point of ZONE_DEVICE is to account for DMA so I see no reason
for pte_is_pinned() to special case dax. The caller of pte_is_pinned()
is doing it for soft_dirty reasons, and I believe soft_dirty is already
disabled for vma_is_dax(). I assume MEMORY_DEVICE_PRIVATE also does not
support soft-dirty, so I expect all ZONE_DEVICE already opt-out of this.

I am not immediately seeing a reason to block pagemap_read() from
interrogating dax-backed virtual mappings. I think these protections can
be dropped.

I think this better handled with something like this to disable all
memcg accounting for ZONE_DEVICE pages:

Good idea.

The intent was to maintain the original behaviour as much as
possible, partly to reduce the chance of unintended bugs/consequences
and partly to maintain my sanity by not having to dig too deeply into
all the callers.

I see I got this a little bit wrong though - it only filters FSDAX pages
and not device DAX (my intent was to filter both).

Ok. Although it feels safer to leave it (along with a check for device
DAX). Someone can always remove it in future if they really do want DAX
pages but this is all x86 specific so will take your guidance here.

Actually soft-dirty is theoretically supported on DEVICE_PRIVATE pages
in the sense that the soft-dirty bits are copied around. Whether or not
it actually works is a different question though, I've certainly never
tried it.

Again, was just trying to maintain previous behaviour but can drop this
check.
