[PATCH] mm: Fix modifying of page protection by insert_pfn_pmd()

With some architectures like ppc64, set_pmd_at() cannot cope with
a situation where there is already some (different) valid entry present.

Use pmdp_set_access_flags() instead to modify the pfn which is built to
deal with modifying existing PMD entries.

This is similar to
commit cae85cb8add3 ("mm/memory.c: fix modifying of page protection by insert_pfn()")

We also do similar update w.r.t insert_pfn_pud eventhough ppc64 don't support
pud pfn entries now.
