[PATCH V2] arm64/mm: Implement pte_po_index() for permission overlay index

From: Ryan Roberts <ryan.roberts at arm.com>

Previously pte_access_permitted() used FIELD_GET() directly to retrieve
the permission overlay index from the pte. However, FIELD_GET() doesn't
work for 128 bit quanitites. Since we are about to add support for D128
pgtables, let's create a specific helper, pte_po_index() which can do
the required mask and shift regardless of the data type width.
