mm: vmalloc must set pte via arch code
Patch series "Fixes for pte encapsulation bypasses", v3.
A series to improve the encapsulation of pte entries by disallowing
non-arch code from directly dereferencing pte_t pointers.
This patch (of 4):
It is bad practice to directly set pte entries within a pte table.
Instead all modifications must go through arch-provided helpers such as
set_pte_at() to give the arch code visibility and allow it to check (and
potentially modify) the operation.
