Subject: mm/migrate: preserve soft dirty in remove_migration_pte()
The code to remove a migration PTE and replace it with a device private
PTE was not copying the soft dirty bit from the migration entry. This
could lead to page contents not being marked dirty when faulting the page
back from device private memory.
