replace redundant code in __hash_page_64K(), __hash_page_huge(),
__hash_page_4K(), __hash_page_4K() and flush_hash_page()   with
helper functions pte_get_hash_gslot() and   pte_set_hash_slot()
This seems out of order.

At lease some of these are patching or even entirely replacing code you
just added.

Here for example. That entire chunk was just added in patch in 2.
