Just like the way we calculate next for pud and pmd, aka
round down and add size.
also remove not needed next checking, just pass end

Just like PUD_SIZE, and PMD_SIZE next calculation, aka
round down and add size.
also remove not need next checking, just pass end instead.
later phys_pud_init uses PTRS_PER_PUD checking to exit early
if end is too big.
