arm64/mm: Set only the PTE_DIRTY bit while preserving the HW dirty state

pte_mkdirty() creates dirty states both in SW and HW bits, which is really
not required, either in pte_wrprotect() or pte_modify() for preserving the
HW dirty state. Because pte_mkdirty() sets PTE_DIRTY and clears PTE_RDONLY
as pte_write() always evaluates to be true - otherwise pte_hw_dirty() will
not test out in the first place. Clearing PTE_RDONLY again is not required
here because the pte is already in pte_hw_dirty() but might soon loose its
dirty state thus requiring preservation in SW dirty bit i.e PTE_DIRTY.
