Subject: [PATCH 2/2] x86: add pte_set_flags/clear_flags for pte flag manipulation

It's not necessary to deconstruct and reconstruct a pte every time its
flags are being updated.  Introduce pte_set_flags and pte_clear_flags
to set and clear flags in a pte.  This allows the flag manipulation
code to be inlined, and avoids calls via paravirt-ops.
