For details refer to patch "x86/paravirt: Use pte_attrs instead of pte_flags on CPA/set_p.._wb/wc operations." which explains that some pages have the _PAGE_PWT bit set in the _PAGE_PSE field when running under Xen. When pageattr_test is running it uses pte_flags to check whether it succedded in setting _PAGE_UNUSED1 bit, but also whether the page had _PAGE_PSE. This can happen when one of the randomly selected pages to be tested is a page that has been set to be _PAGE_WC as under Xen, that field is under _PAGE_PSE. Since the 'pte_huge' call is using the pte_flags(x) macro, which extracts the "raw" contents of the PTE, the translation of _PAGE_PSE -> _PAGE_PWT does not happen and we incorrectly identify the PTE as bad. Using the 'pte_val' instead of 'pte_flags' fixes the problem and this patch does that.
