Do you think this is acceptable?

x86: introduce kernel_pagetable hooks
Introduce two new pvop hooks:
- kernel_pagetable_alloc is used to allocate the initial kernel
pagetable pages;
- kernel_pagetable_reserve is used to reserved the kernel pagetable
memory range;

1. x86_init.paging is the right place for those two functions?
2. native_kernel_pagetable_alloc... should be function that do FIND + RESERVE.
or We just have one function : free_not_used with (pgt_buf_end, pgt_buf_top) ?
Thanks
