Subject: s390/mm: Fix cmma unused transfer from pgste into pte
From: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 0d6da872d3e4a60f43c295386d7ff9a4cdcd57e9 upstream.
The last pgtable rework silently disabled the CMMA unused state by
setting a local pte variable (a parameter) instead of propagating it
back into the caller. Fix it.
Fixes: ebde765c0e85 ("s390/mm: uninline ptep_xxx functions from pgtable.h")
