Commit 5769beaf180a8 ("powerpc/mm: Add proper pte access check helper for other platforms") replaced generic pte_access_permitted() by an arch specific one.
The generic one is defined as (pte_present(pte) && (!(write) || pte_write(pte)))
The arch specific one is open coded checking that _PAGE_USER and _PAGE_WRITE (_PAGE_RW) flags are set, but lacking to check that _PAGE_RO and _PAGE_PRIVILEGED are unset, leading to a useless test on targets like the 8xx which defines _PAGE_RW and _PAGE_USER as 0.
Commit 5fa5b16be5b31 ("powerpc/mm/hugetlb: Use pte_access_permitted for hugetlb access check") replaced some tests performed with pte helpers by a call to pte_access_permitted(), leading to the same issue.
This patch rewrites powerpc/nohash pte_access_permitted() using pte helpers.
