PTE_TYPE_PAGE bits were being set in pte_mkcont() because PTE_TABLE_BIT was
being cleared in pte_mkhuge(). But after arch_make_huge_pte() modification,
which dropped pte_mkhuge() completely, setting back PTE_TYPE_PAGE bits are
no longer necessary. Hence this changes pte_mkcont() to just set PTE_CONT.

This applies on v6.12-rc6 after applying the earlier arch_make_huge_pte()
re-organization patch.

Applied to arm64 (for-next/misc), thanks!
