Use remove_pagetable() and friends for radix vmemmap removal.
We do not require the special-case handling of vmemmap done in the x86
versions of these functions. This is because vmemmap_free() has already
freed the mapped pages, and calls us with an aligned address range.
So, add a few failsafe WARNs, but otherwise the code to remove physical
mappings is already sufficient for vmemmap.
I wonder if we really need them?
Not sure what the guideline is for a "this shouldn't happen" WARN. It
could save us some grief, should our vmemmap code ever start calling
with an unaligned range, like it does on x86.
