Subject: [PATCH RFC 29/37] mm: arm64: Define the PAGE_METADATA_NONE page protection

Define the PAGE_METADATA_NONE page protection to be used when a page with
metadata doesn't have metadata storage reserved.

For arm64, this is accomplished by adding a new page table entry software
bit PTE_METADATA_NONE. Linux doesn't set any of the PBHA bits in entries
from the last level of the translation table and it doesn't use the
TCR_ELx.HWUxx bits.  This makes it safe to define PTE_METADATA_NONE as bit
59.
