x86: fix bad pmd ffff810000207xxx(9090909090909090)
upstream commit: 2884f110d5409714f3a04eeb6d2ecd77da66b242
OGAWA Hirofumi and Fede have reported rare pmd_ERROR messages:
mm/memory.c:127: bad pmd ffff810000207xxx(9090909090909090).
Initialization's cleanup_highmap was leaving alignment filler
behind in the pmd for MODULES_VADDR: when vmalloc's guard page
would occupy a new page table, it's not allocated, and then
module unload's vfree hits the bad 9090 pmd entry left over.

Hugh notes:
It's actually not a serious problem, but it does look as if it's a
serious problem, so we should stamp it out.
