PTEs allocation.

Switch csky to use generic version of these functions.
Ok.
The csky implementation of pte_alloc_one_kernel() is not replaced because
it does not clear the allocated page but rather sets each PTE in it to a
non-zero value.
Yes, we must set each PTE to _PAGE_GLOBAL because hardware refill the
MMU TLB entry with two PTEs and it use the result of pte0.global | pte1.global.
If pte0 is valid and pte1 is invalid, we must set _PAGE_GLOBAL in
invalid pte entry. Fortunately, there is no performance issue.
The pte_free_kernel() and pte_free() versions on csky are identical to the
generic ones and can be simply dropped.
Ok.

Best Regards
 Guo Ren
