Subject: [PATCH v2] Make kunmap_atomic() harder to misuse

kunmap_atomic() is currently at level -4 on Rusty's "Hard To Misuse"
list[1] ("Follow common convention and you'll get it wrong"), except in
some architectures when CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM is set[2][3].

kunmap() takes a pointer to a struct page; kunmap_atomic(), however,
takes takes a pointer to within the page itself. This seems to once in a
while trip people up (the convention they are following is the one from
kunmap()).

Make it much harder to misuse, by moving it to level 9 on Rusty's
list[4] ("The compiler/linker won't let you get it wrong"). This is done
by refusing to build if the type of its first argument is a pointer to a
struct page.

The real kunmap_atomic() is renamed to kunmap_atomic_notypecheck()
(which is what you would call in case for some strange reason calling it
with a pointer to a struct page is not incorrect in your code).

The previous version of this patch was compile tested on x86-64.

[1] http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/index.cgi/tech/2008-04-01.html
[2] In these cases, it is at level 5, "Do it right or it will always
    break at runtime."
[3] At least mips and powerpc look very similar, and sparc also seems to
    share a common ancestor with both; there seems to be quite some
    degree of copy-and-paste coding here. The include/asm/highmem.h file
    for these three archs mention x86 CPUs at its top.
[4] http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/index.cgi/tech/2008-03-30.html
[5] As an aside, could someone tell me why mn10300 uses unsigned long as
    the first parameter of kunmap_atomic() instead of void *?

Changes since -v1:
  Rebased to 2.6.35-rc1
  Add parisc which had been missed
  Use Andrew Morton's suggestion to simplify the code
  Add explanatory comment
