[PATCH v2 3/5] generic/pgtable: Introduce set_pte_safe()

[Dan Williams]

Commit f77084d96355 "x86/mm/pat: Disable preemption around
__flush_tlb_all()" introduced a warning to capture cases
__flush_tlb_all() is called without pre-emption disabled. It triggers a
false positive warning in the memory hotplug path. On investigation it
was found that the __flush_tlb_all() calls are not necessary. However,
they are only "not necessary" in practice provided the ptes are being
initially populated from the !present state. Introduce set_pte_safe() as
a sanity check that the pte is being updated in a way that does not
require a tlb flush.

Forgive the macro, the availability of the various of set_pte() levels
is hit and miss across architectures.
