pte_clear_tests operate on an existing pte entry. Make sure that is not a none

Seems like ptep_get_and_clear() here just clears the entry in preparation
for a following set_pte_at() which otherwise would have been a problem on
ppc64 as you had pointed out earlier i.e set_pte_at() should not update an
existing valid entry. So the commit message here is bit misleading.
and also fetch the pte value which is used further.

Not here, creating and populating an entry must be done in respective
test functions itself. Besides, this seems bit redundant as well. The
test pte_clear_tests() with the above change added, already
- Clears the PTEP entry with ptep_get_and_clear()
and fetch the old value set previously.
In that case, please move above two lines i.e
pte = pfn_pte(pte_aligned, prot);
set_pte_at(mm, vaddr, ptep, pte);
from debug_vm_pgtable() to pte_clear_tests() and update it's arguments
as required.
Frankly, I don't understand what these tests are testing. It all looks
like some random clear and set.
