[PATCH] x86: adjust vmalloc_sync_all() for Xen (2nd try)

From: Jan Beulich
Date: Fri Aug 29 2008 - 07:52:41 EST


Since the fourth PDPT entry cannot be shared under Xen,
vmalloc_sync_all() must iterate over pmd-s rather than pgd-s here.
Luckily, the code isn't used for native PAE (SHARED_KERNEL_PMD is 1)
and the change is benign to non-PAE.

Also do a little more cleanup in that function.
