    x86/mm: Separate out partial_pte tristate into individual flags
    
    At the moment, partial_pte is a tri-state that contains two distinct bits
    of information:
    
    1. If zero, the pte at index [nr_validated_ptes] is un-validated.  If
       non-zero, the pte was last seen with PGT_partial set.
    
    2. If positive, the pte at index [nr_validated_ptes] does not hold a
       general reference count.  If negative, it does.
    
    To make future patches more clear, separate out this functionality
    into two distinct, named bits: PTF_partial_set (for #1) and
    PTF_partial_general_ref (for #2).
    
    Additionally, a number of functions which need this information also
    take other flags to control behavior (such as `preemptible` and
    `defer`).  These are hard to read in the caller (since you only see
    'true' or 'false'), and ugly when many are added together.  In
    preparation for adding yet another flag in a future patch, collapse
    all of these into a single `flag` variable.
    
    NB that this does mean checking for what was previously the '-1'
    condition a bit more ugly in the put_page_from_lNe functions (since
    you have to check for both partial_set and general ref); but this
    clause will go away in a future patch.
    
    Also note that the original comment had an off-by-one error:
    partial_flags (like partial_pte before it) concerns
    plNe[nr_validated_ptes], not plNe[nr_validated_ptes+1].
    
    No functional change intended.
    
    This is part of XSA-299.
