The pte_* modifier functions that cleared bits dropped the NX bit on 32bit PAE because they only worked in int, but NX is in bit 63. Fix that by adding appropiate casts so that the arithmetic happens as long long on PAE kernels.
I decided to just use 64bit arithmetic instead of open coding like pte_modify() because gcc should generate good enough code for that now. While this looks in theory like a .24 candidate this might trigger some subtle latent bugs so it's better to delay it for .25 for more testing.
