Now {pmd,pte}_mkdirty() set _PAGE_DIRTY bit unconditionally, this causes
random segmentation fault after commit 0ccf7f168e ("mm/thp: carry
over dirty bit when thp splits on pmd").
The reason is: when fork(), parent process use pmd_wrprotect() to clear
huge page's _PAGE_WRITE and _PAGE_DIRTY (for COW); then pte_mkdirty() set
_PAGE_DIRTY as well as _PAGE_MODIFIED while splitting dirty huge pages;
once _PAGE_DIRTY is set, there will be no tlb modify exception so the COW
machanism fails; and at last memory corruption occurred between parent
and child processes.
So, we should set _PAGE_DIRTY only when _PAGE_WRITE is set in {pmd,pte}_
mkdirty().
