mm/memory: fix missing pte marker for !page on pte zaps
Commit 0cf18e8 of large folio zap work broke uffd-wp. Now mm's uffd
unit test "wp-unpopulated" will trigger this WARN_ON_ONCE().
The WARN_ON_ONCE() asserts that an VMA cannot be registered with
userfaultfd-wp if it contains a !normal page, but it's actually possible.
One example is an anonymous vma, register with uffd-wp, read anything will
install a zero page. Then when zap on it, this should trigger.
What's more, removing that WARN_ON_ONCE may not be enough either, because
we should also not rely on "whether it's a normal page" to decide whether
pte marker is needed. For example, one can register wr-protect over some
DAX regions to track writes when UFFD_FEATURE_WP_ASYNC enabled, in which
case it can have page==NULL for a devmap but we may want to keep the
marker around.
