arm64: mm: only wrprotect clean ptes if they are present
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Marking non-present ptes as read-only can corrupt file ptes, breaking
things like swap and file mappings.

This patch ensures that we only manipulate user pte bits when the pte
is marked present.
