Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 08/17] powerpc/mm: drop unused page flags

The following page flags in pte-common.h can be dropped:

_PAGE_ENDIAN is only used in mm/fsl_booke_mmu.c and is defined in
asm/nohash/32/pte-fsl-booke.h

_PAGE_4K_PFN is nowhere defined nor used

_PAGE_READ, _PAGE_WRITE and _PAGE_PTE are only defined and used
in book3s/64

The following page flags in book3s/64/pgtable.h can be dropped as
they are not used on this platform nor by common code.

_PAGE_NA, _PAGE_RO, _PAGE_USER and _PAGE_PSIZE

Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@....fr>
