We have two different implementation of is_zero_pfn() and
my_zero_pfn() helpers: for architectures with and without zero page
coloring.

Let's consolidate them in <asm-generic/pgtable.h>.
What's the benefit from doing this other than generalizing some per-arch 
code?  It simply adds on more layer of redirection to try to find the 
implementation that matters for the architecture you're hacking on.
