mm: add follow_pte_pmd()
Patch series "Write protect DAX PMDs in *sync path".
Currently dax_mapping_entry_mkclean() fails to clean and write protect
the pmd_t of a DAX PMD entry during an *sync operation. This can result
in data loss, as detailed in patch 2.
This series is based on Dan's "libnvdimm-pending" branch, which is the
current home for Jan's "dax: Page invalidation fixes" series. You can
find a working tree here:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/zwisler/linux.git/log/?h=dax_pmd_clean
This patch (of 2):
Similar to follow_pte(), follow_pte_pmd() allows either a PTE leaf or a
huge page PMD leaf to be found and returned.
