[PATCH 0 of 8] x86: use PTE_MASK consistently

Hi all,

Here's a series to rationalize the use of PTE_MASK and remove some
amount of ad-hocery.

This gist of the series is:
1. Fix the definition of PTE_MASK so that its equally applicable in
all pagetable modes
2. Use it consistently

I haven't tried to address the *_bad() stuff, other than to convert
pmd_bad_* to use PTE_MASK.

I've compile tested it a bit and run it on 32-bit PAE (native and
Xen), but I haven't tested it with >4G memory, non-PAE or 64-bit. In
other words, it needs some time in Ingo's torture machine.
