Rik van Riel c898faf91b x86: 46 bit physical address support on 64 bits
Extend the maximum addressable memory on x86-64 from 2^44 to
2^46 bytes. This requires some shuffling around of the vmalloc
and virtual memmap memory areas, to keep them away from the
direct mapping of up to 64TB of physical memory.

This patch also introduces a guard hole between the vmalloc
area and the virtual memory map space.  There's really no
good reason why we wouldn't have a guard hole there.

[ Impact: future hardware enablement ]

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 54321d947a x86: move pte types into pgtable*.h
pgtable*.h is intended for definitions relating to actual pagetables
and their entries, so move all the definitions for
(pte|pmd|pud|pgd)(val)?_t to the appropriate pgtable*.h headers.
