mm: optimise nth_page for contiguous memmap
If the memmap is virtually contiguous (either because we're using a
virtually mapped memmap or because we don't support a discontig memmap at
all), then we can implement nth_page() by simple addition.  Contrary to
popular belief, the compiler is not able to optimise this itself for a
vmemmap configuration.  This reduces one example user (sg.c) by four
instructions:
        struct page *page = nth_page(rsv_schp->pages[k], offset >> PAGE_SHIFT);
before:

   48 63 c9                movslq %ecx,%rcx
   48 c1 eb 0c             shr    $0xc,%rbx
   48 8b 04 c8             mov    (%rax,%rcx,8),%rax
   48 2b 05 00 00 00 00    sub    0x0(%rip),%rax
