Based on your advice I  was going to submit this series to stable
separately. This particular issue is not affecting anyone right now. The
only user to this function is sme_kernel_encrypt() which never updates
the PTE/PMD entries.  I can update the commit message like this this to
clarify it.

Enhance the sme_populate_pgd() to update page flags if the PMD/PTE entry
already exists.
