Subject: [PATCH][trivial] mm/pagewalk.c break const constraint.

patch against 2.6.25

when compile 2.6.25, following warnings was outputed.

  CC      mm/pagewalk.o
mm/pagewalk.c: In function 'walk_page_range':
mm/pagewalk.c:111: warning: passing argument 1 of 'pgd_offset' discards qualifiers from p\
ointer target type

mm argument of walk_page_range() is unnecessary const restriction. 
this patch is no functional change. it's only remove warning.

Thanks!
