[PATCH] mm/migrate: Fix wrongly apply write bit after mkdirty on sparc64

[PATCH] mm/migrate: Fix wrongly apply write bit after mkdirty on sparc64

[Peter Xu]

Nick Bowler reported another sparc64 breakage after the young/dirty
persistent work for page migration (per "Link:" below).  That's after a
similar report [2].

It turns out page migration was overlooked, and it wasn't failing before
because page migration was not enabled in the initial report test environment.

David proposed another way [2] to fix this from sparc64 side, but that
patch didn't land somehow.  Neither did I check whether there's any other
arch that has similar issues.

Let's fix it for now as simple as moving the write bit handling to be after
dirty, like what we did before.

Note: this is based on mm-unstable, because the breakage was since 6.1 and
we're at a very late stage of 6.2 (-rc8), so I assume for this specific
case we should target this at 6.3.

I pinged another time and asked Andrew to pick it up eventually.

Not that it matters much, but feel free to use this instead:

CC: regressions@lists.linux.dev

Then things don't depend on me (in case I ever get help with my cat
herding job). And it also make it even more obvious that this patch
fixes a regression to anyone who handles it downstream.

That's a commit from 6.1, hence this should likely have:

Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 6.1.y

[no, a fixes tag alone does not suffice, see docs]

I'd really rather focus on fixing the root cause instead, anyhow if my 
patch won't make it:

Oops, I just forgot that.  We definitely need to cc:stable.  I'll make sure
it's there if there's a new version, or I hope Andrew could help to attach
otherwise.

urgh, sorry, I'd have filtered that out as a sparc patch.
