mm: rmap: introduce pfn_mkclean_range() to cleans PTEs

The page_mkclean_one() is supposed to be used with the pfn that has a
associated struct page, but not all the pfns (e.g.  DAX) have a struct
page.  Introduce a new function pfn_mkclean_range() to cleans the PTEs
(including PMDs) mapped with range of pfns which has no struct page
associated with them.  This helper will be used by DAX device in the next
patch to make pfns clean.
