There are a few kernel users like kfence that require 4k pages to work
correctly and do not support large mappings. They use set_memory_4k()
to break down those large mappings.
That, in turn relies on cpa_data->force_split option to indicate to
set_memory code that it should split page tables regardless of whether
the need to be.
But, a recent change added an optimization which would return early
if a set_memory request came in that did not change permissions. It
did not consult ->force_split and would mistakenly optimize away the
splitting that set_memory_4k() needs. This broke kfence.
Skip the same-permission optimization when ->force_split is set.
