mm: Allow arches to provide ptep_get()
Since commit 9e343b467c70 ("READ_ONCE: Enforce atomicity for
{READ,WRITE}_ONCE() memory accesses") it is not possible anymore to
use READ_ONCE() to access complex page table entries like the one
defined for powerpc 8xx with 16k size pages.
Define a ptep_get() helper that architectures can override instead
of performing a READ_ONCE() on the page table entry pointer.
