Peter Feiner 81d0fa623c mm: softdirty: unmapped addresses between VMAs are clean
If a /proc/pid/pagemap read spans a [VMA, an unmapped region, then a
VM_SOFTDIRTY VMA], the virtual pages in the unmapped region are reported
as softdirty.  Here's a program to demonstrate the bug:

int main() {
	const uint64_t PAGEMAP_SOFTDIRTY = 1ul << 55;
	uint64_t pme[3];
	int fd = open("/proc/self/pagemap", O_RDONLY);;
	char *m = mmap(NULL, 3 * getpagesize(), PROT_READ,
	               MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_SHARED, -1, 0);
	munmap(m + getpagesize(), getpagesize());
	pread(fd, pme, 24, (unsigned long) m / getpagesize() * 8);
	assert(pme[0] & PAGEMAP_SOFTDIRTY);    /* passes */
	assert(!(pme[1] & PAGEMAP_SOFTDIRTY)); /* fails */
	assert(pme[2] & PAGEMAP_SOFTDIRTY);    /* passes */
	return 0;
}

(Note that all pages in new VMAs are softdirty until cleared).

Tested:
	Used the program given above. I'm going to include this code in
	a selftest in the future.
