[PATCH v1 6/9] mm/mmu_gather: define ENCODED_PAGE_FLAG_DELAY_RMAP

Nowadays, encoded pages are only used in mmu_gather handling. Let's
update the documentation, and define ENCODED_PAGE_BIT_DELAY_RMAP. While at
it, rename ENCODE_PAGE_BITS to ENCODED_PAGE_BITS.
If encoded page pointers would ever be used in other context again, we'd
likely want to change the defines to reflect their context (e.g.,
ENCODED_PAGE_FLAG_MMU_GATHER_DELAY_RMAP). For now, let's keep it simple.
This is a preparation for using the remaining spare bit to indicate that
the next item in an array of encoded pages is a "nr_pages" argument and
not an encoded page.
