Booting a ColdFire m68k core with MMU enabled causes a "bad page state"

Fix by calling pgtable_page_dtor() in our __pte_free_tlb() code path,
so that the PG_table flag is cleared before we free the pte page.

Matthew: I came across this thread at https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/6/17/163
          about a similar problem with openrisc. Based on that I came up
          with this fix for m68k/ColdFire. Fixes the issue for me.

Do you need a call to pgtable_page_dtor() in pte_free(), too?
On x86 (and motorola_pgalloc.h and sun3_pgalloc.h FWIW), both functions
call pgtable_page_dtor().

I am thinking yes, looking at those other examples.

Regards
Greg
