mm, drm/ttm: Fix vm page protection handling
TTM graphics buffer objects may, transparently to user-space, move between IO and system memory. When that happens, all PTEs pointing to the old location are zapped before the move and then faulted in again if needed. When that happens, the page protection caching mode- and encryption bits may change and be different from those of struct vm_area_struct::vm_page_prot. We were using an ugly hack to set the page protection correctly. Fix that and instead export and use vmf_insert_mixed_prot() or use vmf_insert_pfn_prot(). Also get the default page protection from struct vm_area_struct::vm_page_prot rather than using vm_get_page_prot(). This way we catch modifications done by the vm system for drivers that want write-notification.
