updated version.

Thanks,
Badari
s390 for one, cannot implement VM_MIXEDMAP with pfn_valid, due to their
memory model (which is more dynamic than most). Instead, they had proposed
to implement it with an additional path through vm_normal_page(), using a
bit in the pte to determine whether or not the page should be refcounted:

vm_normal_page()
{
	...
        if (unlikely(vma->vm_flags & (VM_PFNMAP|VM_MIXEDMAP))) {
                if (vma->vm_flags & VM_MIXEDMAP) {
#ifdef s390
			if (!mixedmap_refcount_pte(pte))
				return NULL;
#else
                        if (!pfn_valid(pfn))
                                return NULL;
#endif
                        goto out;
                }
	...
}

This is fine, however if we are allowed to use a bit in the pte to
determine refcountedness, we can use that to _completely_ replace all the
vma based schemes. So instead of adding more cases to the already complex
vma-based scheme, we can have a clearly seperate and simple pte-based scheme
(and get slightly better code generation in the process):

vm_normal_page()
{
#ifdef s390
	if (!mixedmap_refcount_pte(pte))
		return NULL;
	return pte_page(pte);
#else
	...
#endif
}

And finally, we may rather make this concept usable by any architecture
rather than making it s390 only, so implement a new type of pte state
for this. Unfortunately the old vma based code must stay, because some
architectures may not be able to spare pte bits. This makes vm_normal_page
a little bit more ugly than we would like, but the 2 cases are clearly
seperate.

So introduce a pte_special pte state, and use it in mm/memory.c. It is
currently a noop for all architectures, so this doesn't actually result
in any compiled code changes to mm/memory.o.
