Re: [PATCH] LoongArch: let pmd_present return true when splitting pmd

From: bibo, mao

I suggest to using bit12-bit20 since high weight bits such 63-61 are hw bits, it may
expand for future hw use, or you had better negotiate with hw guys.

>>> +#define _PAGE_PRESENT_INVALID_SHIFT 60
>>> #define _PAGE_NO_READ_SHIFT 61
>>> #define _PAGE_NO_EXEC_SHIFT 62
>>> #define _PAGE_RPLV_SHIFT 63
