mm: convert vmf_insert_mixed() from using pte_devmap to pte_special
DAX no longer requires device PTEs as it always has a ZONE_DEVICE page associated with the PTE that can be reference counted normally. Other users of pte_devmap are drivers that set PFN_DEV when calling vmf_insert_mixed() which ensures vm_normal_page() returns NULL for these entries. There is no reason to distinguish these pte_devmap users so in order to free up a PTE bit use pte_special instead for entries created with vmf_insert_mixed(). This will ensure vm_normal_page() will continue to return NULL for these pages. Architectures that don't support pte_special also don't support pte_devmap so those will continue to rely on pfn_valid() to determine if the page can be mapped.
