mm: introduce and use linear_page_delta()

It's often useful to obtain the number of pages a given address lies at
within a VMA.

Add linear_page_delta() to determine this and update linear_page_index() to
make use of it.

Add comments to describe both linear_page_delta() and linear_page_index().

We refer the reader to the comment for vma_start_pgoff() so we don't
duplicate information about the meaning of a VMA's page offset, which is
also less likely to result in bitrot.

No functional change intended.
