[PATCH V4 0/3] riscv: mm: Add soft-dirty and uffd-wp support

From: Chunyan Zhang

This patchset adds soft dirty and userfaultfd write protect tracking support
for RISC-V.

As described in the patches, we are trying to utilize only one free PTE
bit(9) to support three kernel features (devmap, soft-dirty, uffd-wp).
Users cannot have them supported at the same time (have to select
one when building the kernel).

This patchset has been tested with:
1) The kselftest mm suite in which soft-dirty, madv_populate, test_unmerge_uffd_wp,
and uffd-unit-tests run and pass, and no regressions are observed in any of the
other tests.

2) CRIU:
- 'criu check --feature mem_dirty_track' returns supported;
- incremental_dumps[1] and simple_loop [2] dump and restores work fine;
- zdtm test suite can run under host mode.

V4:
- Added bit(4) descriptions into "Format of swap PTE".

V3:
- Fixed the issue reported by kernel test irobot <lkp@xxxxxxxxx>.

V1 -> V2:
- Add uffd-wp supported;
- Make soft-dirty uffd-wp and devmap mutually exclusive which all use the same PTE bit;
- Add test results of CRIU in the cover-letter.
