Don't set PROT_NONE for exclusive anonymas and maybe-dma-pinned pages for NUMA migration purpose. For exclusive anonymas and page_maybe_dma_pinned() pages, NUMA-migration will eventually drop migration of those pages in try_to_migrate_one(). (i.e. after -EBUSY returned in page_try_share_anon_rmap()). So, skip setting PROT_NONE to those kind of pages earlier in change_protection_range() phase to avoid later futile page faults, detections, and restoration to original PTEs/PMDs.
