If the pte is present, but not writable and write access is requested by the caller to get_user_pages(), the code will do the wrong thing. Rather than calling hugetlb_fault to make the pte writable, it notes the presence of the pte and continues. This simple one-liner makes sure we also fault on the pte for this case. Please apply.
