[PATCH 06/11] x86/xip: after paging trampoline, discard PMDs above _brk

[Jim Kukunas]

In the likely case that XIP_BASE is above PAGE_OFFSET, we
want to discard any early identity mappings. So rather than
keeping every PMD above PAGE_OFFSET, only copy the ones from
PAGE_OFFSET to the last PMD of _end. At this point, the linear
address space should look normal.
