Let's get rid of another follow_page() user and perform the UV calls under PTL -- which likely should be fine. No need for an additional reference while holding the PTL: uv_destroy_folio() and uv_convert_from_secure_folio() raise the refcount, so any concurrent make_folio_secure() would see an unexpted reference and cannot set PG_arch_1 concurrently. Do we really need a writable PTE? Likely yes, because the "destroy" part is, in comparison to the export, a destructive operation. So we'll keep the writability check for now. We'll lose the secretmem check from follow_page(). Likely we don't care about that here.

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 reStructuredText 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.
