On the classic page tables, the PMD_SHIFT is 21 while the SECTION_SHIFT
is 20. They have slightly different meaning.

But we currently have some hacks to cope with PMD_SHIFT being 21 by
writing the pmd[0] and pmd[1] in the same call. The way I see to use
SECTION_SHIFT is to drop the pmd[] array (but haven't looked closely
enough). With LPAE I have a few #ifndef around pmd[1] setting.

OK, the more clean-up the better.
