powerpc/mm: Tweak PTE bit combination definitions
This patch tweaks the way some PTE bit combinations are defined, in such a
way that the 32 and 64-bit variant become almost identical and that will
make it easier to bring in a new common pte-* file for the new variant
of the Book3-E support.
The combination of bits defining access to kernel pages are now clearly
separated from the combination used by userspace and the core VM. The
resulting generated code should remain identical unless I made a mistake.
Note: While at it, I removed a non-sensical statement related to CONFIG_KGDB
in ppc_mmu_32.c which could cause kernel mappings to be user accessible when
that option is enabled. Probably something that bitrot.

* Common bits between 4K and 64K pages in a linux-style PTE.
* These match the bits in the (hardware-defined) PowerPC PTE as closely
* as possible. Additional bits may be defined in pgtable-hash64-*.h
+ *
+ * Note: We only support user read/write permissions. Supervisor always
+ * have full read/write to pages above PAGE_OFFSET (pages below that
+ * always use the user access permissions).
+ *
+ * We could create separate kernel read-only if we used the 3 PP bits
+ * combinations that newer processors provide but we currently don't.
