[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.3 46/87] powerpc/64s/radix: Remove redundant pfn_pte bitop, add VM_BUG_ON

[ Upstream commit 6bb25170d7a44ef0ed9677814600f0785e7421d1 ]

pfn_pte is never given a pte above the addressable physical memory
limit, so the masking is redundant. In case of a software bug, it
is not obviously better to silently truncate the pfn than to corrupt
the pte (either one will result in memory corruption or crashes),
so there is no reason to add this to the fast path.

Add VM_BUG_ON to catch cases where the pfn is invalid. These would
catch the create_section_mapping bug fixed by a previous commit.
