[PATCH v2 07/23 replacement] mips: add pte_unmap() to balance pte_offset_map()

To keep balance in future, __update_tlb() remember to pte_unmap() after
pte_offset_map().  This is an odd case, since the caller has already done
pte_offset_map_lock(), then mips forgets the address and recalculates it;
but my two naive attempts to clean that up did more harm than good.

Andrew, please replace my mips patch, and its build warning fix patch,
in mm-unstable by this less ambitious but working replacement - thanks.
