PAGE_KERNEL_IO also set the reserved G bit, so you're fixing two issues
with a single change. :)

What implementation are you using?  I would have assume that the
original code was tested on QEMU, so we might have a bug there.

Is it necessary to dirty the pte?

It was dirtied before, so it definitely doesn't hurt,
