Ah, yes. A quick fix is as follows:

Now I've confirmed that it compiles under the configuration with
    * 4KB page x 39, 48-bit address space
    * 64KB page x 42, 48-bit address space
and also verified a crash dump image for 64KB x 42/48b cases.

Well, this patch actually also breaks ptdump (debugfs/kernel_page_tables)
as a descriptor can be non-zero yet invalid after applying this patch.
Once it is accepted, I will post another patch which will fix the issue.
pgd_valid() is used in that patch.
