The new ioctl(PAGEMAP_SCAN) relies on vma wr-protect capability provided by
userfault, however in the vma test it didn't explicitly require the vma to
have wr-protect function enabled, even if PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING flag is set.

It means the pagemap code can now apply uffd-wp bit to a page in the vma
even if not registered to userfaultfd at all.

Then in whatever way as long as the pte got written and page fault
resolved, we'll apply the write bit even if uffd-wp bit is set.  We'll see
a pte that has both UFFD_WP and WRITE bit set.  Anything later that looks
up the pte for uffd-wp bit will trigger the warning:

WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 5071 at arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h:403 pte_uffd_wp arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h:403 [inline]

Fix it by doing proper check over the vma attributes when
PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING is specified.

Fixes: 52526ca7fdb9 ("fs/proc/task_mmu: implement IOCTL to get and optionally clear info about PTEs")
