Add userfaultfd_wp() check in vmf_orig_pte_uffd_wp() to avoid the
unnecessary FAULT_FLAG_ORIG_PTE_VALID check/pte_marker_entry_uffd_wp() in
most pagefault, note, the function vmf_orig_pte_uffd_wp() is not inlined
in the two kernel versions, the difference is shown below,

Although it's a small, but the uffd_wp is a new feature than previous
kernel, when the vma is not registered with UFFD_WP, let's avoid to
execute the new logical, also adding __always_inline attribute to
vmf_orig_pte_uffd_wp(), which make set_pte_range() only check VM_UFFD_WP
flags without the function call. In addition, directly call the
vmf_orig_pte_uffd_wp() in do_anonymous_page() and set_pte_range() to save
an uffd_wp variable.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
