Subject: [PATCH v3 01/15] arm64/mm: Make set_ptes() robust when OAs cross 48-bit boundary

From: Ryan Roberts <ryan.roberts@....com>

Since the high bits [51:48] of an OA are not stored contiguously in the
PTE, there is a theoretical bug in set_ptes(), which just adds PAGE_SIZE
to the pte to get the pte with the next pfn. This works until the pfn
crosses the 48-bit boundary, at which point we overflow into the upper
attributes.

Of course one could argue (and Matthew Wilcox has :) that we will never
see a folio cross this boundary because we only allow naturally aligned
power-of-2 allocation, so this would require a half-petabyte folio. So
its only a theoretical bug. But its better that the code is robust
regardless.

I've implemented pte_next_pfn() as part of the fix, which is an opt-in
core-mm interface. So that is now available to the core-mm, which will
be needed shortly to support forthcoming fork()-batching optimizations.
