arm64: mm: Permit contiguous descriptors to be manipulated

Currently, pgattr_change_is_safe() is overly pedantic when it comes to
descriptors with the contiguous hint attribute set, as it rejects
assignments even if the old and the new value are the same.

In fact, as per ARM ARM RJQQTC, manipulating descriptors with the
contiguous bit set is safe as long as the bit itself does not change
value, in the sense that no TLB conflict aborts or other exceptions may
be raised as a result. Inconsistent permission attributes within the
contiguous region may result in any of the alternatives to be taken to
apply to the entire region, which might be a programming error, but it
does not constitute an unsafe manipulation in terms of what
pgattr_change_is_safe() is intended to detect.

So drop the special PTE_CONT check, but still omit PTE_CONT from 'mask'
so that modifying the bit is still regarded as unsafe.
