x86/mm: Disable ioremap free page handling on x86-PAE

commit f967db0b9ed44ec3057a28f3b28efc51df51b835 upstream.

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.
