mm: optimize PageHighMem() check

This came up when implementing HIHGMEM/PAE40 for ARC.  The kmap() /
kmap_atomic() generated code seemed needlessly bloated due to the way
PageHighMem() macro is implemented.  It derives the exact zone for page
and then does pointer subtraction with first zone to infer the zone_type.
The pointer arithmatic in turn generates the code bloat.

PageHighMem(page)
  is_highmem(page_zone(page))
     zone_off = (char *)zone - (char *)zone->zone_pgdat->node_zones

Instead use is_highmem_idx() to work on zone_type available in page flags

For x86 defconfig build (32 bit only) it saves around 900 bytes.
For ARC defconfig with HIGHMEM, it saved around 2K bytes.
