[PATCH v2 07/19] mm/fork: Accept huge pfnmap entries

Teach the fork code to properly copy pfnmaps for pmd/pud levels. Pud is
much easier, the write bit needs to be persisted though for writable and
shared pud mappings like PFNMAP ones, otherwise a follow up write in either
parent or child process will trigger a write fault.
Do the same for pmd level.
