ARM: mm: introduce L_PTE_VALID for page table entries

For long-descriptor translation table formats, the ARMv7 architecture
defines the last two bits of the second- and third-level descriptors to
be:

	x0b	- Invalid
	01b	- Block (second-level), Reserved (third-level)
	11b	- Table (second-level), Page (third-level)

This allows us to define L_PTE_PRESENT as (3 << 0) and use this value to
create ptes directly. However, when determining whether a given pte
value is present in the low-level page table accessors, we only need to
check the least significant bit of the descriptor, allowing us to write
faulting, present entries which are required for PROT_NONE mappings.

This patch introduces L_PTE_VALID, which can be used to test whether a
pte should fault, and updates the low-level page table accessors
accordingly.
