x86/mm: Teach pte_mkwrite() about stack memory
If a VMA has the VM_SHADOW_STACK flag, it is shadow stack memory. So when it is made writable with pte_mkwrite(), it should create shadow stack memory, not conventionally writable memory. Now that all the places where shadow stack memory might be created pass a VMA into pte_mkwrite(), it can know when it should do this. So make pte_mkwrite() create shadow stack memory when the VMA has the VM_SHADOW_STACK flag. Do the same thing for pmd_mkwrite(). This requires referencing VM_SHADOW_STACK in these functions, which are currently defined in pgtable.h, however mm.h (where VM_SHADOW_STACK is located) can't be pulled in without causing problems for files that reference pgtable.h. So also move pte/pmd_mkwrite() into pgtable.c, where they can safely reference VM_SHADOW_STACK.

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.
