- Do not make a clean PTE dirty in pte_mkwrite()
The Arm architecture, for backwards compatibility reasons (ARMv8.0
before in-hardware dirty bit management - DBM), uses the PTE_RDONLY
bit to mean !dirty while the PTE_WRITE bit means DBM enabled. The
arm64 pte_mkwrite() simply clears the PTE_RDONLY bit and this
inadvertently makes the PTE pte_hw_dirty(). Most places making a PTE
writable also invoke pte_mkdirty() but do_swap_page() does not and we
end up with dirty, freshly swapped in, writeable pages.
- Do not warn if the destination page is already MTE-tagged in
copy_highpage()
In the majority of the cases, a destination page copied into is
freshly allocated without the PG_mte_tagged flag set. However, the
folio migration may be restarted if __folio_migrate_mapping() failed,
triggering the benign WARN_ON_ONCE().
