Very nice, and it gets better.

In reviewing 4/9, I said to take out mcopy_atomic_install_pte()'s
set_page_dirty(). Just call it here instead, before the unlock_page().
You have an array of choices for how to write it:
if (!(dst_vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE))
set_page_dirty(page);
or
if (!(dst_vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE))
SetPageDirty(page);
or
set_page_dirty(page);
or
SetPageDirty(page);
Personally, I'd go for the last: this function has just modified the
page, so it ought to mark it dirty: without second-guessing what
mcopy_atomic_install_pte() might do to make that redundant in the
VM_WRITE case. set_page_dirty() or SetPageDirty()? Some years ago
I tended to favour the former for its preparatory PageDirty check;
nowadays (on shmem) I favour the latter, to avoid the function call
indirection which became more expensive with spectre+retpoline.

Given how 4/9 was, this did still need the ClearPageDirty()
before delete_from_page_cache(), to prevent a warning.
But not needed here if SPD is done just before unlock_page().

This change is not required, you'll be glad to hear. Take a look at
lru_cache_add_inactive_or_unevictable() in mm/swap.c: it's a wrapper
to set PageMlocked and do associated accounting (if appropriate) before
doing the lru_cache_add(page). And, strictly speaking, should have been
used in shmem_mcopy_atomic_pte() all along.
I say "strictly speaking" because it would be exceptional to find a page
needing Mlock there, and not an error to delay that Mlock until sometime
later, before reclaim. Worth a sentence in the commit message,
but not worth a "Fixes:" tag.
