arm64: hugetlb: Use __set_ptes_anysz() and __ptep_get_and_clear_anysz()
Refactor the huge_pte helpers to use the new common __set_ptes_anysz()
and __ptep_get_and_clear_anysz() APIs.
This provides 2 benefits; First, when page_table_check=on, hugetlb is
now properly/fully checked. Previously only the first page of a hugetlb
folio was checked. Second, instead of having to call __set_ptes(nr=1)
for each pte in a loop, the whole contiguous batch can now be set in one
go, which enables some efficiencies and cleans up the code.
One detail to note is that huge_ptep_clear_flush() was previously
calling ptep_clear_flush() for a non-contiguous pte (i.e. a pud or pmd
block mapping). This has a couple of disadvantages; first
ptep_clear_flush() calls ptep_get_and_clear() which transparently
handles contpte. Given we only call for non-contiguous ptes, it would be
safe, but a waste of effort. It's preferable to go straight to the layer
below. However, more problematic is that ptep_get_and_clear() is for
PAGE_SIZE entries so it calls page_table_check_pte_clear() and would not
clear the whole hugetlb folio. So let's stop special-casing the non-cont
case and just rely on get_clear_contig_flush() to do the right thing for
non-cont entries.
