This requires careful implementation to ensure the returned value is consistent (because its not possible to read all ptes atomically), but even in the common case when there is no racing modification, we have to read all ptes, which gives an ~O(n^2) cost if the core-mm is iterating over a range, and performing a ptep_get_lockless() on each pte. Solve this by introducing ptep_get_lockless_norecency(), which does not make any guarantees about access and dirty bits. Therefore it can simply read the single target pte. At the same time, convert all call sites that previously used ptep_get_lockless() but don't care about access and dirty state. We may want to do something similar for ptep_get() (i.e. ptep_get_norecency()) in future; it doesn't suffer from the consistency problem because the PTL serializes it with any modifications, but does suffer the same O(n^2) cost.

charset="utf-8" Gup needs to read ptes locklessly, so it uses ptep_get_lockless(). However, the returned access and dirty bits are unimportant so let's switch over to ptep_get_lockless_norecency(). The wrinkle is that gup needs to check that the pte hasn't changed once it has pinned the folio following this model: pte =3D ptep_get_lockless_norecency(ptep) ... if (!pte_same(pte, ptep_get_lockless(ptep))) // RACE! ... And now that pte may not contain correct access and dirty information, the pte_same() comparison could spuriously fail. So let's introduce a new pte_same_norecency() helper which will ignore the access and dirty bits when doing the comparison. Note that previously, ptep_get() was being used for the comparison; this is technically incorrect because the PTL is not held. I've also converted the comparison to use the preferred pmd_same() helper instead of doing a raw value comparison. As a side-effect, this new approach removes the possibility of concurrent read/write to the page causing a spurious fast gup failure, because the access and dirty bits are no longer used in the comparison.

Because this API doesn't require the access and dirty bits to be accurate, for the contpte case, we can avoid reading all ptes in the contpte block to collect those bits, in contrast to ptep_get_lockless().
