Subject: sparc64: Fix executable bit testing in set_pmd_at() paths.

From: "David S. Miller" <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 5b1e94fa439a3227beefad58c28c17f68287a8e9 ]

This code was mistakenly using the exec bit from the PMD in all
cases, even when the PMD isn't a huge PMD.

If it's not a huge PMD, test the exec bit in the individual ptes down
in tlb_batch_pmd_scan().
