Subject: [PATCH] x86: fix PSE pagetable construction
When constructing the initial pagetable in pagetable_init, make sure
that non-PSE pmds are updated to PSE ones. This fixes a bug in the
paravirt pagetable init code, which otherwise tries to avoid overwrite
existing mappings.
This moves the definition of pmd_huge() out of the hugetlbfs files
into pgtable.h.
[ I know Eric would like to make larger changes to the way
pagetable init works, but this patch is the minimal fix to an
existing bug. ]
