x86/mm: Disable ioremap free page handling on x86-PAE
ioremap() supports pmd mappings on x86-PAE. However, kernel's pmd tables are not shared among processes on x86-PAE. Therefore, any update to sync'd pmd entries need re-syncing. Freeing a pte page also leads to a vmalloc fault and hits the BUG_ON in vmalloc_sync_one().
Disable free page handling on x86-PAE. pud_free_pmd_page() and pmd_free_pte_page() simply return 0 if a given pud/pmd entry is present. This assures that ioremap() does not update sync'd pmd entries at the cost of falling back to pte mappings.
