linuxkpi: work with numpages > 1 in the set_pages_*() KPIs
These calls are used for buddy pages at least in drm's ttm_pool, which
leads to a panic when we invoke lowmem handlers and drm tries to shrink
the pool.
Cope with numpages > 1 by traversing the contiguous pages and executing
the adjustment there, as well, as suggested by markj@. Previous
versions have tried to use the corresponding `set_memory_*()` functions,
but it is believed that not updating `md.pat_mode` breaks subsequent
userspace mappings in ways that may result in things like screen tearing
or other artifacts when running i915kms.
This stabilized my amdgpu laptop running two VMs, chromium and a
concurrent buildworld.
