s390/cmma: rework no-dat handling
Rework the way physical pages are set no-dat / dat:
The old way is:
- Rely on that all pages are initially marked "dat"
- Allocate page tables for the kernel mapping
- Enable dat
- Walk the whole kernel mapping and set PG_arch_1 bit in all struct pages
that belong to pages of kernel page tables
- Walk all struct pages and test and clear the PG_arch_1 bit. If the bit is
not set, set the page state to no-dat
- For all subsequent page table allocations, set the page state to dat
(remove the no-dat state) on allocation time
Change this rather complex logic to a simpler approach:
- Set the whole physical memory (all pages) to "no-dat"
- Explicitly set those page table pages to "dat" which are part of the
kernel image (e.g. swapper_pg_dir)
- For all subsequent page table allocations, set the page state to dat
(remove the no-dat state) on allocation time
In result the code is simpler, and this also allows to get rid of one
odd usage of the PG_arch_1 bit.
