mm: Add a vmf_insert_mixed_prot() function



The TTM module today uses a hack to be able to set a different page
protection than struct vm_area_struct::vm_page_prot. To be able to do
this properly, add the needed vm functionality as vmf_insert_mixed_prot().

 * @pgprot: pgprot flags for the inserted page

 *
 * Typically this function should be used by drivers to set caching- and

 * the caching- or encryption mode may not be known at mmap() time.
 * This is ok as long as @vma->vm_page_prot is not used by the core vm
 * to set caching and encryption bits for those vmas (except for COW pages).
 * This is ensured by core vm only modifying these page table entries using
 * functions that don't touch caching- or encryption bits, using pte_modify()
 * if needed. (See for example mprotect()).
 * Also when new page-table entries are created, this is only done using the
 * fault() callback, and never using the value of vma->vm_page_prot,
 * except for page-table entries that point to anonymous pages as the result
 * of COW.
