From: Peter Xu Subject: mm/shmem: handle uffd-wp during fork() Normally we skip copy page when fork() for VM_SHARED shmem, but we can't skip it anymore if uffd-wp is enabled on dst vma. This should only happen when the src uffd has UFFD_FEATURE_EVENT_FORK enabled on uffd-wp shmem vma, so that VM_UFFD_WP will be propagated onto dst vma too, then we should copy the pgtables with uffd-wp bit and pte markers, because these information will be lost otherwise. Since the condition checks will become even more complicated for deciding "whether a vma needs to copy the pgtable during fork()", introduce a helper vma_needs_copy() for it, so everything will be clearer.
