Move ptrval_to_str() inside a header thus making the helper more generally
available for new users which are being added later. While here, also move
another related string size macro PTVAL_STR_MAX inside the header as well.

I would have placed that into include/linux/pgtable.h. Any particular reason for
mm_types?

Yes - that works as well. These declaration and macros need to be moved inside
#ifndef __ASSEMBLY__ block in include/linux/pgtable.h file. Will do the change
as suggested while dropping the RFC tag once v7.3-rc1 is released.

I agree with David, include/linux/pgtable.h is better.

Typo here and in subject: ptrval -> ptval
