Rohan McLure 641d47d4c9 powerpc/mm: support page table check ...

On creation and clearing of a page table mapping, instrument such calls by
invoking page_table_check_pte_set and page_table_check_pte_clear
respectively.  These calls serve as a sanity check against illegal
mappings.

Enable ARCH_SUPPORTS_PAGE_TABLE_CHECK on powerpc, except when HUGETLB_PAGE
is enabled (powerpc has some weirdness in how it implements
set_huge_pte_at(), which may require some further work).
