OGAWA Hirofumi and Fede have reported rare pmd_ERROR messages:
mm/memory.c:127: bad pmd ffff810000207xxx(9090909090909090).

Initialization's cleanup_highmap was leaving alignment filler
behind in the pmd for MODULES_VADDR: when vmalloc's guard page
would occupy a new page table, it's not allocated, and then
module unload's vfree hits the bad 9090 pmd entry left over.
