Thanks, that almost works.

pte_mkprivileged() also needs to not strip _PAGE_BAP_SR.

But there's also a use of pte_pgprot() in mm/memory.c, and I think that
is also broken now that we don't add PAGE_KERNEL back in.

Aneesh is going to do a patch to make pte_pgprot() only mask the PFN
which is what other arches do.

cheers
