Introduce a test that registers a range of memory for UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT_MODE_WP without UFFD_FEATURE_EVENT_REMAP. First check that the uffd-wp bit is set for every PTE in the range. Then mremap() the range to a new location and check that the uffd-wp bit is clear for every PTE in the range. Run the test for small folios, all supported THP sizes and all supported hugetlb sizes, and for swapped out memory, shared and private. There was previously a bug in the kernel where the uffd-wp bits remained set in all PTEs for this case, after fixing the kernel, the tests all pass.

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.
