mm/huge_memory: don't ignore queried cachemode in vmf_insert_pfn_pud()

commit 09fefdca80aebd1023e827cb0ee174983d829d18 upstream.

Patch series "mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and
vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes", v3.

While working on improving vm_normal_page() and friends, I stumbled over
this issues: refcounted "normal" folios must not be marked using
pmd_special() / pud_special().  Otherwise, we're effectively telling the
system that these folios are no "normal", violating the rules we
documented for vm_normal_page().

Fortunately, there are not many pmd_special()/pud_special() users yet.  So
far there doesn't seem to be serious damage.

Tested using the ndctl tests ("ndctl:dax" suite).

This patch (of 3):

We set up the cache mode but ...  don't forward the updated pgprot to
insert_pfn_pud().

Only a problem on x86-64 PAT when mapping PFNs using PUDs that require a
special cachemode.

Fix it by using the proper pgprot where the cachemode was setup.

It is unclear in which configurations we would get the cachemode wrong:
through vfio seems possible.  Getting cachemodes wrong is usually ...
bad.  As the fix is easy, let's backport it to stable.

Identified by code inspection.
