mm: ptep_clear() page table helper

We have ptep_get_and_clear() and ptep_get_and_clear_full() helpers to
clear PTE from user page tables, but there is no variant for simple
clear of a present PTE from user page tables without using a low level
pte_clear() which can be either native or para-virtualised.

Add a new ptep_clear() that can be used in common code to clear PTEs
from page table.  We will need this call later in order to add a hook
for page table check.
