[PATCH] arm64: mm: fix passing the incorrect 'CONT_PTES' for non-batched APIs

Since contpte_test_and_clear_young_ptes() and contpte_clear_flush_young_ptes
have already performed CONT_PTE_SIZE alignment and will clear the young flag
for the entire cont block, Their non-batched callers do not need to pass in
'CONT_PTES' to specify the cont block range. Otherwise, it may exceed the
range of a single cont block for the non-batched cases.

Hi Andrew,
As I conducted more tests, I found that the ptep_test_and_clear_young() operation
may clear the young flag beyond a single cont block range, causing issues.
Please fold this fixup into this patch to solve this issue. Thanks.
