The read-only and Dirty PTE has been used to indicate copy-on-write pages. However, newer x86 processors also regard a read-only and Dirty PTE as a shadow stack page. In order to separate the two, the software-defined _PAGE_COW is created to replace _PAGE_DIRTY for the copy-on-write case, and pte_*() are updated.
Pte_modify() changes a PTE to 'newprot', but it doesn't use the pte_*(). Introduce fixup_dirty_pte(), which sets a dirty PTE, based on _PAGE_RW, to either _PAGE_DIRTY or _PAGE_COW. Apply the same changes to pmd_modify().
