Normally when running in PAE mode, the 4th PMD maps the kernel address space, which can be shared among all processes (since they all need the same kernel mappings). Xen, however, does not allow guests to have the kernel pmd shared between page tables, so parameterize pgtable.c to allow both modes of operation. There are several side-effects of this. One is that vmalloc will update the kernel address space mappings, and those updates need to be propagated into all processes if the kernel mappings are not intrinsically shared. In the non-PAE case, this is done by maintaining a pgd_list of all processes; this list is used when all process pagetables must be updated. pgd_list is threaded via otherwise unused entries in the page structure for the pgd, which means that the pgd must be page-sized for this to work. Normally the PAE pgd is only 4x64 byte entries large, but Xen requires the PAE pgd to page aligned anyway, so this patch forces the pgd to be page aligned+sized when the kernel pmd is unshared, to accomodate both these requirements. Also, since there may be several distinct kernel pmds (if the user/kernel split is below 3G), there's no point in allocating them from a slab cache; they're just allocated with get_free_page and initialized appropriately. (Of course the could be cached if there is just a single kernel pmd - which is the default with a 3G user/kernel split - but it doesn't seem worthwhile to add yet another case into this code).
