Caused oopses again. Also fix potential mismatch in checking if
change_page_attr was needed.
To do it without races I needed to change mm/vmalloc.c to export a
__remove_vm_area that does not take vmlist lock.
Noticed by Terence Ripperda and based on a patch of his.

The PTEs can point to ioremap mappings too, and these are often outside
mem_map. The NUMA hash page lookup functions cannot handle out of bounds
accesses properly.

It could be in a memory hole not mapped in mem_map and that causes the hash
lookup to go off to nirvana.

Use a real VMA to map the 32bit vsyscall page
This interacts better with Hugh's upcomming VMA walk optimization
Also removes some ugly special cases.
Code roughly modelled after the ppc64 vdso version from Ben Herrenschmidt.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
