x86: NX bit handling in change_page_attr()

This patch fixes a bug of change_page_attr/change_page_attr_addr on
Intel x86_64 CPUs.  After changing page attribute to be executable with
these functions, the page remains un-executable on Intel x86_64 CPU.
Because on Intel x86_64 CPU, only if the "NX" bits of all four level
page tables are cleared, the corresponding page is executable (refer to
section 4.13.2 of Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's
Manual).  So, the bug is fixed through clearing the "NX" bit of PMD when
splitting the huge PMD.
