Okay.

Linus, please ignore this pull request.

Peter, once you get some time please sort out which of these commits 
we want to keep:

 b17a5f97d413: x86_32: Calculate additional memory needed by the fixmap
 2e9fbad5955f: x86-64, mm: Do not assume head_64.S used 4KB pages when !use_pse
 1938931a20da: x86, init : Move memblock_x86_reserve_range PGTABLE to find_early_table_space
 d8ca7b16cfc1: Revert "x86,xen: introduce x86_init.mapping.pagetable_reserve"
 8e7f9f8d4076: x86, mm: Calculate precisely the memory needed by init_memory_mapping

for example 2e9fbad5955f looks independent.

Thanks,

	Ingo
