This series renames pmd_mknotpresent() as pmd_mknotvalid(). Before that it
drops an existing pmd_mknotpresent() definition from powerpc platform which
was never required as it defines it's pmdp_invalidate() through subscribing
__HAVE_ARCH_PMDP_INVALIDATE. This does not create any functional change.
This rename was suggested by Catalin during a previous discussion while we
were trying to change the THP helpers on arm64 platform for migration.

Boot tested on arm64 and x86 platforms.
Built tested on many other platforms including the ones changed here.

Platform needs to define pmd_mknotpresent() for generic pmdp_invalidate()
only when __HAVE_ARCH_PMDP_INVALIDATE is not subscribed. Otherwise platform
specific pmd_mknotpresent() is not required. Hence just drop it.

Gentle ping, any updates regarding this ?
We're in the merge window so I have parked this for consideration after
-rc1.
