[PATCH 7/7] ARM: page: Turn highpage accesses into static inlines

Clearing and copying pages in highmem uses either the cpu_user
vtable or the __glue() assembler stubs to call into per-CPU
versions of these functions.

This is all really confusing for KCFI so wrap these into static
inlines and prefix each inline function with __nocfi.

__cpu_clear_user_highpage() and __cpu_copy_user_highpage() are
exported in arch/arm/mm/proc-syms.c which causes a problem with
using static inlines, but it turns out that these exports are
completely unused, so we can just delete them.
