mm: clear pte in clear_soft_dirty()

As mentioned in the commit 56eecdb912b5 ("mm: Use ptep/pmdp_set_numa()
for updating _PAGE_NUMA bit"), architectures like ppc64 don't do tlb
flush in set_pte/pmd functions.

So when dealing with existing pte in clear_soft_dirty, the pte must be
cleared before being modified.
