fork: improve error message for corrupted page tables

When a user process exits, the kernel cleans up the mm_struct of the user
process and during cleanup, check_mm() checks the page tables of the user
process for corruption (E.g: unexpected page flags set/cleared).  For
corrupted page tables, the error message printed by check_mm() isn't very
clear as it prints the loop index instead of page table type (E.g:
Resident file mapping pages vs Resident shared memory pages).  The loop
index in check_mm() is used to index rss_stat[] which represents
individual memory type stats.  Hence, instead of printing index, print
memory type, thereby improving error message.

Also, change print function (from printk(KERN_ALERT, ..) to pr_alert()) so
that it matches the other print statement.
