Subject: [PATCH] mm: migrate_device: fix pte_pfn/pte_dirty called on
 non-present PTE

pte_pfn() and pte_dirty() have undefined behaviour when called on a
non-present PTE. In migrate_vma_collect_pmd(), these functions may be
invoked on non-present entries (e.g., device-private entries), leading
to potential crashes from pte_pfn() or incorrect dirty folio accounting
from pte_dirty(). Fix both by guarding with pte_present() checks.
