In __tlb_batch_free_encoded_pages(), we can indeed detect PageTable()
and call pagetable_dtor() to dtor the page table pages.
But __tlb_batch_free_encoded_pages() is also used to free normal pages
(not page table pages), so I don't want to add overhead there.

But now I think maybe we can do this in tlb_remove_page_ptdesc(), like
this:

This avoids explicitly calling pagetable_dtor() in the architecture
code. If that makes sense, I can send a formal separate patch to do
this.

Thanks,
