mm/migrate: preserve exact soft-dirty state
pte_mkdirty() sets both _PAGE_DIRTY and _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bits. The _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY can get set even if it wasn't set on original page before migration. This makes non-soft-dirty pages soft-dirty just because of migration/compaction. Clear the _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY flag if it wasn't set on original page. By definition of soft-dirty feature, there can be spurious soft-dirty pages because of kernel's internal activity such as VMA merging or migration/compaction. This patch is eliminating the spurious soft-dirty pages because of migration/compaction.
