[PATCH] freepgt: free_pgtables from FIRST_USER_ADDRESS

The patches to free_pgtables by vma left problems on any architectures which
leave some user address page table entries unencapsulated by vma.  Andi has
fixed the 32-bit vDSO on x86_64 to use a vma.  Now fix arm (and arm26), whose
first PAGE_SIZE is reserved (perhaps) for machine vectors.

Our calls to free_pgtables must not touch that area, and exit_mmap's
BUG_ON(nr_ptes) must allow that arm's get_pgd_slow may (or may not) have
allocated an extra page table, which its free_pgd_slow would free later.

FIRST_USER_PGD_NR has misled me and others: until all the arches define
FIRST_USER_ADDRESS instead, a hack in mmap.c to derive one from t'other.  This
patch fixes the bugs, the remaining patches just clean it up.
