Old code does not uses PAT for vm_insert_pfn, now it can use it for single-page vma.
And I see glitches on my notebook if kernel do this (see comment in v2 of my patch)
Probably we shouldn't touch this, plus seems like using pat-engine for single page isn't optimal:
it allocates special control structures for this.
