[PATCH] ppc32: Fix pte_update for 64-bit PTEs
While the existing pte_update code handled atomically modifying a 64-bit PTE,
it did not return all 64-bits of the PTE before it was modified. This causes
problems in some places that expect the full PTE to be returned, like
ptep_get_and_clear().
Created a new pte_update function that is conditional on CONFIG_PTE_64BIT. It
atomically reads the low PTE word which all PTE flags are required to be in
and returns a premodified full 64-bit PTE.
Since we now have an explicit 64-bit PTE version of pte_update we can also
remove the hack that existed to get the low PTE word regardless of size.
