[PATCH] mm_types: remove references to s390 gmap

[PATCH] mm_types: remove references to s390 gmap

[Paolo Bonzini]

s390 does not anymore use special struct page for its shadow page tables.
The honor of giving a special meaning to pt_index is now m68k's, so
rename the fields and adjust them for the desired type.
