Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] x86/vmemmap: Drop handling of 4K unaligned vmemmap range

remove_pte_table() is prepared to handle the case where either the
start or the end of the range is not PAGE aligned.
This cannot actually happen:

__populate_section_memmap enforces the range to be PMD aligned,
so as long as the size of the struct page remains multiple of 8,
the vmemmap range will be aligned to PAGE_SIZE.

Drop the dead code and place a VM_BUG_ON in vmemmap_{populate,free}
to catch nasty cases.
