x86: preallocate pmds at pgd creation time

In PAE mode, an update to the pgd requires a cr3 reload to make sure
the processor notices the changes.  Since this also has the
side-effect of flushing the tlb, its an expensive operation which we
want to avoid where possible.

This patch mitigates the cost of installing the initial set of pmds on
process creation by preallocating them when the pgd is allocated.
This avoids up to three tlb flushes during exec, as it creates the new
process address space while the pagetable is in active use.

The pmds will be freed as part of the normal pagetable teardown in
free_pgtables, which is called in munmap and process exit.  However,
free_pgtables will only free parts of the pagetable which actually
contain mappings, so stray pmds may still be attached to the pgd at
pgd_free time.  We must mop them up to prevent a memory leak.
