Subject: s390/mm: Fix cmma unused transfer from pgste into pte

From: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com>

commit 0d6da872d3e4a60f43c295386d7ff9a4cdcd57e9 upstream.

The last pgtable rework silently disabled the CMMA unused state by
setting a local pte variable (a parameter) instead of propagating it
back into the caller. Fix it.
