Totally off-topic, but.. today when I was looking at the unuse path I just
found that the swp bits could have got lost for either soft-dirty and
uffd-wp here?  A quick patch attached.

Maybe at some point we should start to have some special helpers for
set_pte_at() when we're converting between present/non-present ptes, so as
to make sure all these will always be taken care of properly.
