Sorry, I've been busy with other things...

What do other thing about it ? Having update_mmu_cache() call buried
inside the ptep_set_access_flags() sounds good ? Somebody has a better
idea ?

One thing I was thinking was that we could replace the whole logic with
having ptep_set_access_flags() compare the new PTE bits with what was
already there and return wether an update_mmu_cache() is required....
