mm: softdirty: clear VM_SOFTDIRTY flag inside clear_refs_write() instead of clear_soft_dirty()
clear_refs_write() is called earlier than clear_soft_dirty() and it is
more natural to clear VM_SOFTDIRTY (which belongs to VMA entry but not
PTEs) that early instead of clearing it a way deeper inside call chain.
