[PATCH 15/30] mm: introduce and use linear_page_delta()

[Lorenzo Stoakes <ljs@kernel.org>]

It's often useful to obtain the number of pages a given address lies at
within a VMA.

Add linear_page_delta() to determine this and update linear_page_index() to
make use of it.

Add comments to describe both linear_page_delta() and linear_page_index().

No functional change intended.
