When updating page tables, we need to make sure we fill the page table
entry valid bit. We should be using page table populate interface for
updating the table entries. The page table 'set' interface allows
updating the raw value of page table entry. This can result in
updating the entry wrongly. Remove the 'set' interface so that we avoid
its future usage.
