With the introduction of the .brk section, special care must be taken
that no unused page table entries remain if _brk_end and _end are
separated by a 2M page boundary. cleanup_highmap() runs very early and
hence cannot take care of that, hence potential entries needing to be
removed past _brk_end must be cleared once the brk allocator has done
its job.

Impact: cleanup
The table_start, table_end, and table_top are too generic for global
namespace so rename them to be more specific.
