I'm ok with the change if that helps as big as 1%, but I'm a bit surprised
to see such a difference, because for file pte_marker_uffd_wp() should
check first on pte_none() then it should return already if uffd not even
registered for the vma, while orig_pte should be hot too if valid.

pte_marker_uffd_wp() returns false when !PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP, so kind of
imply this.  I assume you meant to avoid checking ORIG_PTE_VALID flag, but
the flags is pretty hot too.  Again, just want to double check with you on
whether it can have such a huge difference, e.g., how that compares with
the current code v.s. original patch v.s. this squashed.

Thanks,
