The goal is to be able to advance a PTE by an arbitrary number of PFNs.
So introduce a new API that takes a nr param.
We are going to remove pte_next_pfn() and replace it with
pte_advance_pfn(). As a first step, implement pte_next_pfn() as a
wrapper around pte_advance_pfn() so that we can incrementally switch the
architectures over. Once all arches are moved over, we will change all
the core-mm callers to call pte_advance_pfn() directly and remove the
wrapper.
