Subject: 2.6.25-gitX and pmd_bad() on x86_32

Hi!

Yesterday I tried to compile 2.6.25-git5 but I ran into a "Unknown
Symbol" (pmd_bad)  warning from linker while compiling the nvidia-binary module.

I tracked this issue down to this git-commit:
9fc34113f6880b215cbea4e7017fc818700384c2

AFAICS, x86_32 is the only architecture where pmd_bad is neither a
define or a static inline. Including asm/pgtable.h is no longer
sufficient on x868_32. Is this behaviour intended or is there just a
EXPORT_SYMBOL missing?
