Subject: [PATCH v2 15/17] powerpc/mm: flatten function __find_linux_pte() step
 1

__find_linux_pte() is full of if/else which is hard to
follow allthough the handling is pretty simple.

This patch flattens the function by getting rid of as much if/else
as possible. In order to ease the review, this is done in three steps.
