This is a part of clean up of the page table manipulation code that aims to
remove asm-generic/5level-fixup.h and asm-generic/pgtable-nop4d-hack.h

There is a single patch for both arm and arm64 because doing the conversion
separately would mean breaking the shared mmu bits in virt/kvm/arm.
Unfortunately, that's going to be really hard to merge, as the two
architectures are maintained in different trees and the breadth of this
patch series is likely to lead to conflicts in both.
I anyway realized that sending these changes arch-by-arch was not so bright
idea, so my intention is to make "v2" include all the changes required to
drop asm-generic/5level-fixup.h and merge it via the -mm tree.
