[PATCH v2] powerpc/book3s/hash: Drop _PAGE_PRIVILEGED from PAGE_NONE

There used to be a dependency on _PAGE_PRIVILEGED with pte_savedwrite.
But that got dropped by
commit 6a56ccbcf6c6 ("mm/autonuma: use can_change_(pte|pmd)_writable() to replace savedwrite")

With the change in this patch numa fault pte (pte_protnone()) gets mapped as regular user pte
with RWX cleared (no-access) whereas earlier it used to be mapped _PAGE_PRIVILEGED.

Hash fault handling code did get some WARN_ON added because those
functions are not expected to get called with _PAGE_READ cleared.
commit 18061c17c8ec ("powerpc/mm: Update PROTFAULT handling in the page fault path")
explains the details.

Also revert commit 1abce0580b89 ("powerpc/64s: Fix __pte_needs_flush() false positive warning")
