With more embedded systems emerging using Quark, among other
things, 32-bit kernel matters again. 32-bit machine and kernel
uses PAE paging, which currently wastes at least 4K of memory
per process on Linux where we have to reserve an entire page to
support a single 32-byte PGD structure. It would be a very good
thing if we could eliminate that wastage.
PAE paging is used to access more than 4GB memory on x86-32. And
it is required for NX.
In this patch, we still allocate one page for pgd for a Xen
domain and 64-bit kernel because one page pgd is assumed in
these cases. But we can save memory space by only allocating
32-byte pgd for 32-bit PAE kernel when it is not running as a
Xen domain.
