mm/x86: add missing pud helpers
Some new helpers will be needed for pud entry updates soon. Introduce these helpers by referencing the pmd ones. Namely: - pudp_invalidate(): this helper invalidates a huge pud before a split happens, so that the invalidated pud entry will make sure no race will happen (either with software, like a concurrent zap, or hardware, like a/d bit lost). - pud_modify(): this helper applies a new pgprot to an existing huge pud mapping. For more information on why we need these two helpers, please refer to the corresponding pmd helpers in the mprotect() code path. When at it, simplify the pud_modify()/pmd_modify() comments on shadow stack pgtable entries to reference pte_modify() to avoid duplicating the whole paragraph three times.
