This requires careful implementation to ensure the returned value is consistent (because its not possible to read all ptes atomically), but even in the common case when there is no racing modification, we have to read all ptes, which gives an ~O(n^2) cost if the core-mm is iterating over a range, and performing a ptep_get_lockless() on each pte. Solve this by introducing ptep_get_lockless_norecency(), which does not make any guarantees about access and dirty bits. Therefore it can simply read the single target pte. At the same time, convert all call sites that previously used ptep_get_lockless() but don't care about access and dirty state. We may want to do something similar for ptep_get() (i.e. ptep_get_norecency()) in future; it doesn't suffer from the consistency problem because the PTL serializes it with any modifications, but does suffer the same O(n^2) cost.
