Subject: [PATCH v2 1/9] agp: efficeon: no need to set PG_reserved on GATT tables

The l1 GATT page table is kept in a special on-chip page with 64 entries.
We allocate the l2 page table pages via get_zeroed_page() and enter them
into the table. These l2 pages are modified accordingly when
inserting/removing memory via efficeon_insert_memory and
efficeon_remove_memory.

Apart from that, these pages are not exposed or ioremap'ed. We can stop
setting them reserved (propably copied from generic code).
