This reverts commit aa232204c468 ("mm/page_table_check: remove unused
parameter in [__]page_table_check_pte_clear").

Reinstate previously unused parameters for the purpose of supporting
powerpc platforms, as many do not encode user/kernel ownership of the
page in the pte, but instead in the address of the access.
