This also introduces pteval_t.  It would be useful to have the
introduction of pteval_t as a separate patch, which not only
introduces the typedef, but also makes use of it.

This should become:

typedef struct { pteval_t pte; } pte_t;

L_PTE_* can then be declared using linux/const.h stuff to typedef them
to pteval_t.  shared_pte_mask also needs to be pteval_t.

As far as the __p*_error() functions, these should probably be passed
the pte/pmd/pgd value itself, rather than first passing them through
__pte_val() et.al.

Of couse, I now have patches for this and my other points... will sort
them out into a series in the next few days.
