powerpc/mm: use set_pte_at_unchecked() for internal usages
In the new set_ptes() API, set_pte_at() (a special case of set_ptes()) is
intended to be instrumented by the page table check facility. There are
however several other routines that constitute the API for setting page
table entries, including set_pmd_at() among others. Such routines are
themselves implemented in terms of set_ptes_at().
A future patch providing support for page table checking on powerpc must
take care to avoid duplicate calls to page_table_check_p{te,md,ud}_set().
Allow for assignment of pte entries without instrumentation through the
set_pte_at_unchecked() routine introduced in this patch.
Cause API-facing routines that call set_pte_at() to instead call
set_pte_at_unchecked(), which will remain uninstrumented by page table
check. set_ptes() is itself implemented by calls to __set_pte_at(), so
this eliminates redundant code.
