[ Upstream commit 6db73f17c5f155dbcfd5e48e621c706270b84df0 ] When SEV or SME is enabled and active, vm_get_page_prot() typically returns with the encryption bit set. This means that users of pgprot_modify(, vm_get_page_prot()) (mprotect_fixup(), do_mmap()) end up with a value of vma->vm_pg_prot that is not consistent with the intended protection of the PTEs. This is also important for fault handlers that rely on the VMA vm_page_prot to set the page protection. Fix this by not allowing pgprot_modify() to change the encryption bit, similar to how it's done for PAT bits.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
