mm: mempolicy: Implement change_prot_numa() in terms of change_protection()
This patch converts change_prot_numa() to use change_protection(). As pte_numa and friends check the PTE bits directly it is necessary for change_protection() to use pmd_mknuma(). Hence the required modifications to change_protection() are a little clumsy but the end result is that most of the numa page table helpers are just one or two instructions.

+ * These are later cleared by a NUMA hinting fault. Depending on these
+ * faults, pages may be migrated for better NUMA placement.

+ * This is assuming that NUMA faults are handled using PROT_NONE. If
