Good point.. Yes we definitely don't want the empty pte to be recognized as the
special pte..  I'll squash below into the same patch:

----8<----
diff --git a/include/linux/userfaultfd_k.h b/include/linux/userfaultfd_k.h
index 489fb375e66c..23ca449240d1 100644

        return pte_same(pte, UFFD_WP_SWP_PTE_SPECIAL);
+#else

 }
 
 #else /* CONFIG_USERFAULTFD */
----8<----

I'll see whether I can give some dry run without HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP but
with USERFAULTFD.

Thanks for spotting that!
