pte_access_permitted() returns false on an exec-only page.

As far as I can see in arm64, pte_user_accessible_page() returns true on 
an exec-only page.

In addition, pte_access_permitted() is called only from GUP so is 
garanteed to be called only for user pages. Do we have the same garantee 
from callers of pte_user_accessible_page() ? If not it is needed to 
check address in addition, see commit a78587473642 ("powerpc: Rely on 
address instead of pte_user()")

pte_user() is not equivalent nor implies by pte_read(). In most 
platforms it is implied by the address being below TASK_SIZE.
pte_read() will also return true on kernel readable pages.

No need of that pte local var, can fit as a single line.
