Yeah, different flags can be used on various archs to represent
mapped a PMD and a migration PMD entry. Sounds good.

Though I was initially skeptical about whether this will compile
on POWER because of lack of a pmd_swp_soft_dirty() definition
but it turns out we have a generic one to fallback on as we dont
define ARCH_ENABLE_THP_MIGRATION yet.

#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_SOFT_DIRTY
#ifndef CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_THP_MIGRATION
static inline pmd_t pmd_swp_mksoft_dirty(pmd_t pmd)
{
	return pmd;
}

static inline int pmd_swp_soft_dirty(pmd_t pmd)
{
	return 0;
}

static inline pmd_t pmd_swp_clear_soft_dirty(pmd_t pmd)
{
	return pmd;
}
#endif
