From: Nadav Amit <namit@xxxxxxxxxx> It is possible to get an EINVAL error instead of EPERM if the following test vm_flags have VM_UFFD_WP but do not have VM_MAYWRITE, as "ret" is overwritten since commit cab350afcbc9 ("userfaultfd: hugetlbfs: allow registration of ranges containing huge pages"). Fix it.
