This reverts commit 28ee90fe6048fa7b7ceaeb8831c0e4e454a4cf89.
This commit is broken for x86, as it unmaps the PTE and PMD pages and immediatly frees them without doing a TLB flush.
Further this lacks synchronization with other page-tables in the system when the PMD pages are not shared between mm_structs.
On x86-32 with PAE and PTI patches on-top this patch triggers the BUG_ON in vmalloc_sync_one() because the kernel and the process page-table were not synchronized.

I do not agree with the comments and this revert. Let's discuss further on the original thread.
Thanks, -Toshi
