Previously, invalid PTEs and swap PTEs had the same binary
representation, causing errors when attempting to unmap PROT_NONE
mappings, including implicit unmap on exit.

Typical error:

swap_info_get: Bad swap file entry 40000000007a9879
BUG: Bad page map in process a.out  pte:3d4c3cc0 pmd:3e521401

int
main (void)
{
  char *a = mmap (0, 4096, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
                  MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
  ++*a;
  mprotect (a, 4096, PROT_NONE);
}
