mm/huge_memory: don't mark refcounted folios special in vmf_insert_folio_pud()
Marking PUDs that map a "normal" refcounted folios as special is against
our rules documented for vm_normal_page(). normal (refcounted) folios
shall never have the page table mapping marked as special.
Fortunately, there are not that many pud_special() check that can be
mislead and are right now rather harmless: e.g., none so far bases
decisions whether to grab a folio reference on that decision.
Well, and GUP-fast will fallback to GUP-slow. All in all, so far no big
implications as it seems.
Getting this right will get more important as we introduce
folio_normal_page_pud() and start using it in more place where we
currently special-case based on other VMA flags.
Fix it just like we fixed vmf_insert_folio_pmd().
Add folio_mk_pud() to mimic what we do with folio_mk_pmd().
