Subject: [PATCH 13/26] mm: simplify get_user_pages() PTE bit handling


The current get_user_pages() code is a wee bit more complicated
than it needs to be for pte bit checking.  Currently, it establishes
a mask of required pte _PAGE_* bits and ensures that the pte it
goes after has all those bits.

We need to use the bits for our _PAGE_PRESENT check since
pte_present() is also true for _PAGE_PROTNONE, and we have no
accessor for _PAGE_USER, so need it there as well.

But we might as well just use pte_write() since we have it and
let the compiler work its magic on optimizing it.

This also consolidates the three identical copies of this code.
