[PATCH] freepgt: free_pgtables from FIRST_USER_ADDRESS
The patches to free_pgtables by vma left problems on any architectures which leave some user address page table entries unencapsulated by vma. Andi has fixed the 32-bit vDSO on x86_64 to use a vma. Now fix arm (and arm26), whose first PAGE_SIZE is reserved (perhaps) for machine vectors. Our calls to free_pgtables must not touch that area, and exit_mmap's BUG_ON(nr_ptes) must allow that arm's get_pgd_slow may (or may not) have allocated an extra page table, which its free_pgd_slow would free later. FIRST_USER_PGD_NR has misled me and others: until all the arches define FIRST_USER_ADDRESS instead, a hack in mmap.c to derive one from t'other. This patch fixes the bugs, the remaining patches just clean it up.
