`fork` implements copy on write (COW) by making pages readonly in child
and parent both.

ptep_set_wrprotect and pte_wrprotect clears _PAGE_WRITE in PTE.
Assumption is that page is readable and on fault copy on write happens.

To implement COW on shadow stack pages, clearing up W bit makes them XWR =
000. This will result in wrong PTE setting which says no perms but V=1 and
PFN field pointing to final page. Instead desired behavior is to turn it
into a readable page, take an access (load/store) fault on sspush/sspop
(shadow stack) and then perform COW on such pages. This way regular reads
would still be allowed and not lead to COW maintaining current behavior
of COW on non-shadow stack but writeable memory.

On the other hand it doesn't interfere with existing COW for read-write
memory. Assumption is always that _PAGE_READ must have been set and thus
setting _PAGE_READ is harmless.
