[PATCH v3 2/2] powerpc: Add set_memory_{p/np}() and remove set_memory_attr()

set_memory_attr() was implemented by commit 4d1755b6a762 ("powerpc/mm:
implement set_memory_attr()") because the set_memory_xx() couldn't
be used at that time to modify memory "on the fly" as explained it
the commit.

But set_memory_attr() uses set_pte_at() which leads to warnings when
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is selected, because set_pte_at() is unexpected for
updating existing page table entries.

The check could be bypassed by using __set_pte_at() instead,
as it was the case before commit c988cfd38e48 ("powerpc/32:
use set_memory_attr()") but since commit 9f7853d7609d ("powerpc/mm:
Fix set_memory_*() against concurrent accesses") it is now possible
to use set_memory_xx() functions to update page table entries
"on the fly" because the update is now atomic.

For DEBUG_PAGEALLOC we need to clear and set back _PAGE_PRESENT.
Add set_memory_np() and set_memory_p() for that.

Replace all uses of set_memory_attr() by the relevant set_memory_xx()
and remove set_memory_attr().

v3: Use _PAGE_PRESENT directly as all platforms have the bit

v2: Add comment to SET_MEMORY_P and SET_MEMORY_NP
