powerpc/44x: Introduce _PAGE_READ and remove _PAGE_USER
44x MMU has 6 page protection bits: - R, W, X for supervisor - R, W, X for user It means that it can support X without R. To do that, _PAGE_READ flag is needed but there is no bit available for it in PTE. On the other hand the only real use of _PAGE_USER is to implement PAGE_NONE by clearing _PAGE_USER. As _PAGE_NONE can also be implemented by clearing _PAGE_READ, remove _PAGE_USER and add _PAGE_READ. In order to insert bits in one go during TLB miss, move _PAGE_ACCESSED and put _PAGE_READ just after _PAGE_DIRTY so that _PAGE_DIRTY is copied into SW and _PAGE_READ into SR at once. With that change, 44x now also honors execute-only protection.
