There is another class of user mappings, execute-only, that have both
PTE_USER and PTE_UXN cleared. So this logic should be:

	pte_valid(pte) && (pte_user(pte) || pte_user_exec(pte))

with pte_user() as:

#define pte_user(pte)	(!!(pte_val(pte) & PTE_USER))

Do we care about PROT_NONE mappings here? They have the valid bit
cleared but pte_present() is true.

pmd_leaf() implies valid, so you can skip it if that's the aim.

Similar comment to the pte variant on execute-only and PROT_NONE
mappings.
