powerpc/mm: Don't track subpage valid bit in pte_t
This free up 11 bits in pte_t. In the later patch we also change the pte_t format so that we can start supporting migration pte at pmd level. We now track 4k subpage valid bit as below If we have _PAGE_COMBO set, we override the _PAGE_F_GIX_SHIFT and _PAGE_F_SECOND. Together we have 4 bits, each of them used to indicate whether any of the 4 4k subpage in that group is valid. ie, [ group 1 bit ] [ group 2 bit ] ..... [ group 4 ] [ subpage 1 - 4] [ subpage 5- 8] ..... [ subpage 13 - 16] We still track each 4k subpage slot number and secondary hash information in the second half of pgtable_t. Removing the subpage tracking have some significant overhead on aim9 and ebizzy benchmark and to support THP with 4K subpage, we do need a pgtable_t of 4096 bytes.
