Subject: mm/page_vma_mapped: device-exclusive entries are not migration entries

It's unclear why they would be considered migration entries; they are not.
Likely we'll never really trigger that case in practice, because migration
(including folio split) of a folio that has device-exclusive entries is
never started, as we would detect "additional references":
device-exclusive entries adjust the mapcount, but not the refcount.
