<title>x86: unsigned long pte_pfn</title>

pte_pfn() has always been of type unsigned long, even on 32-bit PAE;
but in the current tip/next/mm tree it works out to be unsigned long
long on 64-bit, which gives an irritating warning if you try to printk
a pfn with the usual %lx.

Now use the same pte_pfn() function, moved from pgtable-3level.h
to pgtable.h, for all models: as suggested by Jeremy Fitzhardinge.
And pte_page() can well move along with it (remaining a macro to
avoid dependence on mm_types.h).

<title>x86: consolidate header guards</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch is the result of an automatic script that consolidates the
format of all the headers in include/asm-x86/.

The format:

1. No leading underscore. Names with leading underscores are reserved.
2. Pathname components are separated by two underscores. So we can
   distinguish between mm_types.h and mm/types.h.
3. Everything except letters and numbers are turned into single
   underscores.

<title>x86: rename PTE_MASK to PTE_PFN_MASK</title>

Rusty, in his peevish way, complained that macros defining constants
should have a name which somewhat accurately reflects the actual
purpose of the constant.

Aside from the fact that PTE_MASK gives no clue as to what's actually
being masked, and is misleadingly similar to the functionally entirely
different PMD_MASK, PUD_MASK and PGD_MASK, I don't really see what the
problem is.

But if this patch silences the incessent noise, then it will have
achieved its goal (TODO: write test-case).

<title>x86: pud_clear: only reload cr3 if necessary</title>

Rather than unconditionally reloading cr3, only do so if the pud we're
updating is within the active pgd.

This eliminates TLB flushes most of the time.  The
performance-critical uses of pud_clear are during execve and exit, but
in those cases cr3 is referring to some other pagetable.  The only
other use of pud_clear is during a large (1Gbyte+) munmap, and those
are sufficiently rare that a couple of cr3 reloads won't hurt.
