x86, mm: fix gup_pte_range() vs DAX mappings
commit ef947b25 upstream. gup_pte_range() fails to check pte_allows_gup() before translating a DAX pte entry, pte_devmap(), to a page. This allows writes to read-only mappings, and bypasses the DAX cacheline dirty tracking due to missed 'mkwrite' faults. The gup_huge_pmd() path and the gup_huge_pud() path correctly check pte_allows_gup() before checking for _devmap() entries.
