This patch introduces the option to introduce special pte bit into
pmd/puds.  Archs can start to define pmd_special / pud_special when
supported by selecting the new option.  Per-arch support will be added
later.

Before that, create fallbacks for these helpers so that they are always
available.

As noted in reply to other patches, I think you have to take care of
vm_normal_page_pmd() [if not done in another patch I am missing] and likely
you want to introduce vm_normal_page_pud().

So far this patch may not have direct involvement with vm_normal_page_pud()
yet?  Anyway, let's keep the discussion there, then we'll know how to move
on.

vm_normal_page_pud() might make sense as of today already, primarily to wrap the pud_devmap() stuff (maybe that is gone soon, who knows). Anyhow, I can send a patch to add that as well.
