[PATCH v3 23/28] ARM: mmu: Make sure that address is 1M aligned in arm_create_pte()

[Andrey Smirnov <andrew.smirnov@gmail.com>]

If address passed arm_create_pte() is not 1M (PGDIR_SIZE) aligned,
page table that is created will end up having unexpected mapping
offset, breaking "1:1 mapping" assumption and leading to bugs that are
not immediately obvious in their nature.

To prevent this and because all of the callers already do said
alignement in-place, move the alignment code to be a part of
are_create_pte().
