Introduce clear_pages(), to be overridden by architectures that support more efficient clearing of consecutive pages. Also introduce clear_user_pages(), however, we will not expect this function to be overridden anytime soon. As we do for clear_user_page(), define clear_user_pages() only if the architecture does not define clear_user_highpage(). That is because if the architecture does define clear_user_highpage(), then it likely needs some flushing magic when clearing user pages or highpages. This means we can get away without defining clear_user_pages(), since, much like its single page sibling, its only potential user is the generic clear_user_highpages() which should instead be using clear_user_highpage().
