From: Mike Rapoport <rppt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: nds32: switch to generic version of pte allocation

The nds32 implementation of pte_alloc_one_kernel() differs from the
generic in the use of __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL flag, which is removed after the
conversion.

The nds32 version of pte_alloc_one() missed the call to
pgtable_page_ctor() and also used __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL.  Switching it to
use generic __pte_alloc_one() for the PTE page allocation ensures that
page table constructor is run and the user page tables are allocated with
__GFP_ACCOUNT.

The conversion to the generic version of pte_free_kernel() removes the
NULL check for pte.

The pte_free() version on nds32 is identical to the generic one and can be
simply dropped.
