arm64: mm: Add double logical invert to pte accessors
Page table entries on ARM64 are 64 bits, and some pte functions such as
pte_dirty return a bitwise-and of a flag with the pte value. If the
flag to be tested resides in the upper 32 bits of the pte, then we run
into the danger of the result being dropped if downcast.
For example:
gather_stats(page, md, pte_dirty(*pte), 1);
where pte_dirty(*pte) is downcast to an int.
This patch adds a double logical invert to all the pte_ accessors to
ensure predictable downcasting.
