gup_hugepte() checks if pages are present and readable, and
when 'write' is set, also checks if the pages are writable.
Initially this was done by checking if _PAGE_PRESENT and
_PAGE_READ were set. In addition, _PAGE_WRITE was verified for write
accesses.
The problem is that we have to handle the three following cases:
1/ The target defines __PAGE_READ and __PAGE_WRITE
2/ The target defines __PAGE_RW
3/ The target defines __PAGE_RO
In case 1/, this is obvious
In case 2/, __PAGE_READ is defined as 0 and __PAGE_WRITE as __PAGE_RW
so it works as well.
But in case 3, __PAGE_RW is defined as 0, which means __PAGE_WRITE is 0
and then the test returns true (page writable) in all cases.
A first correction was attempted in commit

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
