[PATCH 01/15] ARM: add mem_type prot_pte accessor

From: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier at arm.com>

The KVM hypervisor mmu code requires access to the mem_type prot_pte
field when setting up page tables pointing to a device. Unfortunately,
the mem_type structure is opaque.

Add an accessor (get_mem_type_prot_pte()) to retrieve the prot_pte
value.
