Convert page_table_check_p[mu]d_set(...) to
page_table_check_p[mu]ds_set(..., nr) to allow checking a contiguous set
of pmds/puds in single batch. We retain page_table_check_p[mu]d_set(...)
as macros that call new batch functions with nr=1 for compatibility.
arm64 is about to reorganise its pte/pmd/pud helpers to reuse more code
and to allow the implementation for huge_pte to more efficiently set
ptes/pmds/puds in batches. We need these batch-helpers to make the
refactoring possible.

A very small nit.
Although this justification here is reasonable enough but not sure if
platform specific requirements, need to be spelled out in such detail
for a generic MM change.

Personally I find the "why" to be the most useful part of a commit log. I'd
prefer to leave it in unless any mm people complain.
