Remove the broken pfn_to_virt() on architectures csky/hexagon/openrisc. The pfn_to_virt() on those architectures takes PFN instead of PA as the input to macro __va(), with PAGE_SHIFT applying to the converted VA, which is not right, especially when there's a non-zero offset in __va(). [1] The broken pfn_to_virt() was noticed when checking how page_to_virt() is unfolded on x86. It turns out that the one in linux/mm.h instead of in asm-generic/page.h is compiled for x86. However, page_to_virt() in asm-generic/page.h is found out expanding to pfn_to_virt() with a bug described above. The pfn_to_virt() is found out not right as well on architectures csky/hexagon/openrisc. Since there's no single caller on csky/hexagon/openrisc to pfn_to_virt() and there are functions doing similar things as pfn_to_virt() -- - pfn_to_kaddr() in asm/page.h for csky, - page_to_virt() in asm/page.h for hexagon, and - page_to_virt() in linux/mm.h for openrisc, just delete the pfn_to_virt() on those architectures. The pfn_to_virt() in asm-generic/page.h is not touched in this patch as it's referenced by page_to_virt() in that header while the whole header is going to be removed as a whole due to no one including it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
