Subject: [PATCH 2/2] powerpc/mm/autonuma: Switch ppc64 to its own implementeation of saved write

With this our protnone becomes a present pte with READ/WRITE/EXEC bit cleared.
By default we also set _PAGE_PRIVILEGED on such pte. This is now used to help
us identify a protnone pte that as saved write bit. For such pte, we will clear
the _PAGE_PRIVILEGED bit. The pte still remain non-accessible from both user
and kernel.
