Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 13/19] mm/debug_vm_page_table: Use setters instead of WRITE_ONCE

Currently debug_vm_page_table uses some raw WRITE_ONCE invocations to
write to page tables, which PKS tables is designed to prevent. So use the
set_p**() helpers instead of WRITE_ONCE for x86, so debug_vm_page_table
will work with PKS tables enabled.
