Subject: [PATCHv4 09/12] x86/mm: Provide pmdp_establish() helper

We need an atomic way to setup pmd page table entry, avoiding races with
CPU setting dirty/accessed bits. This is required to implement
pmdp_invalidate() that doesn't lose these bits.

On PAE we can avoid expensive cmpxchg8b for cases when new page table
entry is not present. If it's present, fallback to cpmxchg loop.
