[ For consistency base all PAGE_* macros off a variable. I tested this
on ARM1136. ]
The PAGE_* user page protection macros don't take into account the
configured memory policy and other architecture specific bits like
the global/ASID and shared mapping bits. Instead of constants let
these depend on a variable fixed up at init just like PAGE_KERNEL.
