x86/mm: Fix regression with huge pages on PAE



Recent PAT patchset has caused issue on 32-bit PAE machines:

  page:eea45000 count:0 mapcount:-128 mapping:  (null) index:0x0 flags: 0x40000000()
  page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_mapcount(page) < 0)
  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  kernel BUG at /home/build/linux-boris/mm/huge_memory.c:1485!
  invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP

The problem is in pmd_pfn_mask() and pmd_flags_mask(). These
helpers use PMD_PAGE_MASK to calculate resulting mask.
PMD_PAGE_MASK is 'unsigned long', not 'unsigned long long' as
phys_addr_t is on 32-bit PAE (ARCH_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT). As a
result, the upper bits of resulting mask get truncated.

pud_pfn_mask() and pud_flags_mask() aren't problematic since we
don't have PUD page table level on 32-bit systems, but it's
reasonable to keep them consistent with PMD counterpart.

Introduce PHYSICAL_PMD_PAGE_MASK and PHYSICAL_PUD_PAGE_MASK in
addition to existing PHYSICAL_PAGE_MASK and reworks helpers to
use them.
