- Untangle the somewhat incestous way of how VMALLOC_START is used all across the
kernel, but is, on x86, defined deep inside one of the lowest level page table headers.
It doesn't help that vmalloc.h only includes a single asm header:
#include <asm/page.h> /* pgprot_t */
So there was no existing cross-arch way to decouple address layout
definitions from page.h details. I used this:
#ifndef VMALLOC_START
# include <asm/vmalloc.h>
#endif
This way every architecture that wants to simplify page.h can do so.
- Also on x86 we had a couple of LDT related inline functions that used
the late-stage address space layout positions - but these could be
uninlined without real trouble - the end result is cleaner this way as
well.
