Hmmm, I based it off of your arm64-pagetable-rework-20160125 tag and
Ard's patch for vmalloc and set_memory_* . The patches seem to apply
on the for-next/pgtable branch as well so I'm guessing you are missing
Ard's patch.

Yeah, that was what I was going for. I went for the implication with pgtable_alloc
over adding a bool variable to create_mapping. I'll see if I can put a comment
in somewhere to clarify the intentions.

Sounds fine.
