[PATCH v2 2/8] mm: rename pointers to software PTE values as ptentp

[Muhammad Usama Anjum]

Some interfaces use pte_t * for a software PTE value rather than for an
entry stored in a PTE table. These pointers must remain pte_t * when
pointers to PTE table storage are converted to hw_pte_t *.

Rename these parameters in the install_pte callback,
write_protect_page(), and guard_install_set_pte() to ptentp. The later
Coccinelle conversion skips pointers named ptentp, allowing it to convert
the remaining PTE table pointers without changing these interfaces.

Some functions already use ptentp for such pointers, including:
- madvise_folio_pte_batch()
- folio_pte_batch_flags()
No need to rename them.

This patch only renames parameters and makes no functional change.

Changes since v1:
- Rewrite the subject and description to distinguish software PTE
  values from PTE table storage.

Changes since RFC v1:
- Update the description for the architecture opt-in conversion.
