UFFDIO_MOVE on a swapped-out page installs the source PTE at the
destination unchanged, so a uffd bit set on a write-protected or
RWP-protected source lands in a destination VMA that was never
registered for either, and nothing clears it afterwards.  Patch 1 clears the bit, then re-arms it if
the destination is RWP-registered, which is what the present-page and
zeropage move paths already do.  Patch 2 adds the tests that catch it.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260919004630.1159895-1-donggeunyoo.kernel@gmail.com/
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260925042907.2330519-1-donggeunyoo.kernel@gmail.com/

Changes in v3:
 - patch 1: describe the userspace-visible effects and the backport
   (Andrew Morton, David Hildenbrand)
 - patch 2: drop the MADV_PAGEOUT retry loop (David Hildenbrand)
 - patch 2: add an RWP case (David Hildenbrand)

Changes in v2:
 - patch 1: clear the bit unconditionally (Kiryl Shutsemau)
 - patch 1: rewrite the changelog for readability (Mike Rapoport)
 - add Assisted-by: LLM (Mike Rapoport)

UFFDIO_MOVE on a swapped-out page installs the source PTE at the
destination unchanged, so a uffd bit set on a write-protected or
RWP-protected source lands in a destination VMA that was never
registered for either.  Nothing clears it there, and userspace sees:

 - /proc/<pid>/pagemap reports the page as uffd-tracked (bit 57), both
   while it is swapped out and after it is faulted back in.
 - MADV_COLLAPSE fails with EINVAL on a range containing it, because the
   collapse scan bails on a swap entry with the uffd bit set.
 - With CONFIG_PAGE_TABLE_CHECK, faulting the page in warns.
   do_swap_page() carries the bit into the present PTE and, since the
   destination isn't WP-registered, also makes it writable:

   WARNING: mm/page_table_check.c:202 at __page_table_check_ptes_set+0x185/0x1e0
   Call Trace:
    set_ptes+0x67/0xc0
    do_swap_page+0x990/0xfe0
    __handle_mm_fault+0x7d0/0xeb0
    handle_mm_fault+0x9c/0x250
    do_user_addr_fault+0x207/0x650
    exc_page_fault+0x65/0x150
    asm_exc_page_fault+0x26/0x30

Reaching it takes UFFDIO_MOVE out of a WP- or RWP-protected area into
one that isn't, on a page that is swapped out at the time.  It hasn't
been seen in practice.

A resident page doesn't carry the bit, because move_present_ptes() builds
the destination PTE from dst_vma->vm_page_prot.  Clear it on the moved
swap entry as well, then re-arm it if the destination is RWP-registered.

The WP case has been there since v6.8, where UFFDIO_MOVE was added.

Move a swapped-out page out of a write-protected or RWP-protected area into
a destination registered for missing faults only, and read pagemap bit 57
at the destination.  The destination was never protected, so the bit must
be clear.
