Subject: include/asm-generic/page.h: calculate virt_to_page and page_to_virt via predefined macro
From: Sonic Zhang <sonic.zhang@xxxxxxxxxx>

On NOMMU architectures, if physical memory doesn't start from 0,
ARCH_PFN_OFFSET is defined to generate page index in mem_map array. 
Because virtual address is equal to physical address, PAGE_OFFSET is
always 0.  virt_to_page and page_to_virt should not index page by
PAGE_OFFSET directly.
