[PATCHv2 1/2] arm64: Get existing page protections in split_pmd

[Laura Abbott]

Rather than always putting the least restrictived permissions
(PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC) when spliting a pmd into pages, use
the existing permissions from the pmd for the page.

v2: Typo and typechecking fixed

I chose not to add the Reviewed-by from Ard here because of the addition of
the contiguous bit in split_pmd. Not sure if I should be explicitly carrying
it over.
