Subject: mm: /proc/pid/pagemap: inspect _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY only on present pages

From: Cyrill Gorcunov <[email protected]>

commit e9cdd6e771580e6ff872e5c64e8b766972c7d1bc upstream.

If a page we are inspecting is in swap we may occasionally report it as
having soft dirty bit (even if it is clean).  The pte_soft_dirty helper
should be called on present pte only.
