[CRIU] [PATCH] mm: don't lose the SOFT_DIRTY flag on mprotect

The SOFT_DIRTY bit shows that the content of memory was changed
after a defined point in the past. mprotect() doesn't change the
content of memory, so it must not change the SOFT_DIRTY bit.
This patch does nothing with _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY, becase pte_modify()
is called only for present pages.
Fixes: 0f8975ec4db2 (mm: soft-dirty bits for user memory changes tracking)
