In change_pte_range(), when a PTE is changed for prot_numa, _PAGE_RW is preserved to avoid the additional write fault after the NUMA hinting fault. However, pte_write() now includes both normal writable and shadow stack (RW=0, Dirty=1) PTEs, but the latter does not have _PAGE_RW and has no need to preserve it. Exclude shadow stack from preserve_write test, and apply the same change to change_huge_pmd(). Signed-off-by: Yu-cheng Yu <yu-cheng.yu@xxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Kirill A.
