David Hildenbrand 5436d65569 mm/huge_memory: revert "Partly revert "mm/thp: carry over dirty bit when thp splits on pmd""
This reverts commit 624a2c94f5 ("Partly revert "mm/thp: carry over dirty
bit when thp splits on pmd"") and the fixup in commit e833bc5034
("mm/thp: re-apply mkdirty for small pages after split").

Now that sparc64 mkdirty handling is fixed and no longer sets a PTE/PMD
writable that shouldn't be writable, let's revert the temporary fix and
remove the stale comment.

The mkdirty mm selftest still passes with this change on sparc64.

Note that loongarch handling was fixed in commit bf2f34a506 ("LoongArch:
Set _PAGE_DIRTY only if _PAGE_WRITE is set in {pmd,pte}_mkdirty()")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
