Andrew,

(this should probably go in for 2.6.12)

While the existing pte_update code handled atomically modifying a 64-bit 
PTE, it did not return all 64-bits of the PTE before it was modified.  
This causes problems in some places that expect the full PTE to be 
returned, like ptep_get_and_clear().

Created a new pte_update function that is conditional on CONFIG_PTE_64BIT. 
It atomically reads the low PTE word which all PTE flags are required to 
be in and returns a premodified full 64-bit PTE.

Since we now have an explicit 64-bit PTE version of pte_update we can also 
remove the hack that existed to get the low PTE word regardless of size.
