[PATCH] arm64/mm: fold check for KFENCE into can_set_direct_map()

From: Mike Rapoport <rppt at linux.ibm.com>

KFENCE requires linear map to be mapped at page granularity, so that it
is possible to protect/unprotect single pages, just like with
rodata_full and DEBUG_PAGEALLOC.

Instead of repating

	can_set_direct_map() || IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KFENCE)

make can_set_direct_map() handle the KFENCE case.

This also prevents potential false positives in kernel_page_present()
that may return true for non-present page if CONFIG_KFENCE is enabled.
