mm: kfence: pass a pointer to virt_to_page()

Functions that work on a pointer to virtual memory such as virt_to_pfn()
and users of that function such as virt_to_page() are supposed to pass a
pointer to virtual memory, ideally a (void *) or other pointer.  However
since many architectures implement virt_to_pfn() as a macro, this function
becomes polymorphic and accepts both a (unsigned long) and a (void *).

If we instead implement a proper virt_to_pfn(void *addr) function the
following happens (occurred on arch/arm):

mm/kfence/core.c:558:30: warning: passing argument 1
  of 'virt_to_pfn' makes pointer from integer without a
  cast [-Wint-conversion]

In one case we can refer to __kfence_pool directly (and that is a proper
(char *) pointer) and in the other call site we use an explicit cast.
