arm64: mm: introduce present, faulting entries for PAGE_NONE
This is mostly a port of dbf62d50 ("ARM: mm: introduce L_PTE_VALID for page table entries") and 26ffd0d4 ("ARM: mm: introduce present, faulting entries for PAGE_NONE") from ARM, which makes use of present, faulting page table entries for page table entries mapped as PROT_NONE. The main difference with this implementation is that we can make use of the two pte type bits in order to avoid allocating a software bit for identifying PROT_NONE pages, instead reserving the 10b suffix for these types of mappings. This is required to prevent users from accessing such pages via syscalls such as read/write over a pipe.
