> There used to be a dependency on _PAGE_PRIVILEGED with pte_savedwrite.
> But that got dropped by
> commit 6a56ccbcf6c6 ("mm/autonuma: use can_change_(pte|pmd)_writable() to replace savedwrite")
> 
> With the change in this patch numa fault pte (pte_protnone()) gets mapped as regular user pte
> with RWX cleared (no-access) whereas earlier it used to be mapped _PAGE_PRIVILEGED.
> 
> Hash fault handling code gets some WARN_ON added in this patch because
> those functions are not expected to get called with _PAGE_READ cleared.
> commit 18061c17c8ec ("powerpc/mm: Update PROTFAULT handling in the page
> fault path") explains the details.
