x86: use the pfn from the page when change its attributes

When changing the attributes of a pte, we should use the PFN from the
existing PTE rather than going through hoops calculating what we think
it might have been; this is both fragile and totally unneeded. It also
makes it more hairy to call any of these functions on non-direct maps
for no good reason whatsover.

With this change, __change_page_attr() no longer takes a pfn as argument,
which simplifies all the callers.
