make W=1 generates the following warning for mm/mapping_dirty_helpers.c
mm/mapping_dirty_helpers.c:325: warning: duplicate section name 'Note'
The helper function is very specific to one driver -- vmwgfx. While the
two notes are separate, all of it needs to be taken into account when
using the helper so make it one note.

Mapping dirty helpers have, so far, been only used on X86, but a port of
vmwgfx to ARM64 exposed a problem which results in a compilation error
on ARM64 systems:
mm/mapping_dirty_helpers.c: In function `wp_clean_pud_entry':
mm/mapping_dirty_helpers.c:172:32: error: implicit declaration of function `pud_dirty'; did you mean `pmd_dirty'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
This is due to the fact that mapping_dirty_helpers code assumes that
pud_dirty is always defined, which is not the case for architectures
that don't define CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD.
ARM64 arch is a little inconsistent when it comes to PUD hugepage
helpers, e.g. it defines pud_young but not pud_dirty but regardless of
that the core kernel code shouldn't assume that any of the PUD hugepage
helpers are available unless CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD
is defined. This prevents compilation errors whenever one of the
drivers is ported to new architectures.

Add and change parameter explanation for wp_pte and clean_record_pte, to
avoid W1 warning:

Following the update of pagewalk code commit a07984d48146 ("mm: pagewalk:
add p4d_entry() and pgd_entry()") we can modify the mapping_dirty_helpers'
huge page-table entry callbacks to avoid splitting when a huge pud or -pmd
is encountered.

Add two utilities to 1) write-protect and 2) clean all ptes pointing into
a range of an address space.
The utilities are intended to aid in tracking dirty pages (either
driver-allocated system memory or pci device memory).
The write-protect utility should be used in conjunction with
page_mkwrite() and pfn_mkwrite() to trigger write page-faults on page
accesses. Typically one would want to use this on sparse accesses into
large memory regions. The clean utility should be used to utilize
hardware dirtying functionality and avoid the overhead of page-faults,
typically on large accesses into small memory regions.
