ARM: improve compiler's ability to optimize page tables

Browse Source 
Allow the compiler to better optimize the page table walking code
by avoiding over-complex pmd_addr_end() calculations.  These
calculations prevent the compiler spotting that we'll never iterate
over the PMD table, causing it to create double nested loops where
a single loop will do.
