mm: convert vmf_insert_mixed() from using pte_devmap to pte_special
DAX no longer requires device PTEs as it always has a ZONE_DEVICE page
associated with the PTE that can be reference counted normally. Other
users of pte_devmap are drivers that set PFN_DEV when calling
vmf_insert_mixed() which ensures vm_normal_page() returns NULL for these
entries.
There is no reason to distinguish these pte_devmap users so in order to
free up a PTE bit use pte_special instead for entries created with
vmf_insert_mixed(). This will ensure vm_normal_page() will continue to
return NULL for these pages.
Architectures that don't support pte_special also don't support pte_devmap
so those will continue to rely on pfn_valid() to determine if the page can
be mapped.
