[2.4 RFC] Do not allow pkmap and fixmaps to overlap

[Keith M Wesolowski <wesolows@foobazco.org>]

On SMP systems, the fixmap and pkmap regions can (will) overlap.
Although x86 has a check for this condition indicating the box will
crash if it exists, I found it trying to track down an unrelated
(non-SMP-specific) bug rather than by directly observing any ill
effects.  Therefore I need some people to test and tell me if this has
any effect (positive or negative).

If you want to understand what's going on here, I have a vaddr map at
http://foobazco.org/~wesolows/sparc-25-virtmap.

I have some more major surgery in mind for 2.6, which is also
affected, but this simple fixup seems more appropriate for 2.4.
Comments?
