highmem: fix checks in __kmap_local_sched_{in,out}
When CONFIG_DEBUG_KMAP_LOCAL is enabled __kmap_local_sched_{in,out} check
that even slots in the tsk->kmap_ctrl.pteval are unmapped. The slots are
initialized with 0 value, but the check is done with pte_none. 0 pte
however does not necessarily mean that pte_none will return true. e.g.
on xtensa it returns false, resulting in the following runtime warnings:
