Andrei Vagin e6a9a2cbc1 fs/proc/task_mmu: report SOFT_DIRTY bits through the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl
The PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl returns information regarding page table entries. 
It is more efficient compared to reading pagemap files.  CRIU can start to
utilize this ioctl, but it needs info about soft-dirty bits to track
memory changes.

We are aware of a new method for tracking memory changes implemented in
the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl.  For CRIU, the primary advantage of this method is
its usability by unprivileged users.  However, it is not feasible to
transparently replace the soft-dirty tracker with the new one.  The main
problem here is userfault descriptors that have to be preserved between
pre-dump iterations.  It means criu continues supporting the soft-dirty
method to avoid breakage for current users.  The new method will be
implemented as a separate feature.
