[PATCH] powerpc/mm: Fix UBSAN warning reported on hugetlb

Powerpc architecture supports 16GB hugetlb pages with hash translation. For 4K
page size, this is implemented as a hugepage directory entry at PGD level and
for 64K it is implemented as a huge page pte at PUD level

With 16GB hugetlb size, offset within a page is greater than 32 bits. Hence
switch to use unsigned long type when using hugepd_shift.

Inorder to keep things simpler, we make sure we always use unsigned long type
when using hugepd_shift() even though all the hugetlb page size won't require
that.

The walk_hugepd_range change won't have any impact because we don't use that for
the hugetlb walk. That code is needed to support hugepd on init_mm with PPC_8XX
and 8M page. Even though 8M page size won't result in any real issue, we update
that to keep it simpler.

The hugetlb_free_p*d_range changes are all related to nohash usage where we can
have multiple pgd entries pointing to the same hugepd entries. Hence on book3s64
where we can have > 4GB hugetlb page size we will always find more < next even
if we compute the value of more correctly.

Hence there is no functional change in this patch except that it fixes the below
warning.
