Did we find a real issue that involves mprotect()?

At least can_change_pte_writable() should always return "false" for
userfaultfd_pte_wp().

Do we maybe have a uffd-wp PTE outside of a UFFD_WP VMA?

Or was the PTE already writable and we only detect it now as we call
mprotect()? (missed to detect it earlier?)

Staring at the reproducer, we do

/*flags=MAP_FIXED|MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE*/ 0x32ul, /*fd=*/-1,

-> Restore write permissions. This seems to fire the uffd-wp page table check I assume.

I think the issue is that userfaultfd_release() will clear the VMA UFFD_WP flag,
but it will not clear PTE uffd-wp bits. So we have leftover PTE uffd-wp bits at
the time we wr-unprotect.

I thought we removed that lazy handling, but looks like we didn't consider the
"close uffd" case in:

mm/uffd: reset write protection when unregister with wp-mode


close should behave just like unregister.
