You've understandably gone ahead with pre4aa1, not waited for my
contiguous pkmap_page_table patch. I've now finished testing it,
and append below, since I prefer it to what you have in pre4aa1.
Two calls to fixrange_init, the second needing contiguous page
table address space, yet sharing the page table chosen by the
first call (FIXADDR_START is not aligned), would that really
work in general? And your fixrange_init even more complicated
than it was before!
It didn't boot in my 1GB user virtual, 2GB physical memory,
PAE testing (yes, PAE with <= 4GB physical memory is not optimal,
but should work for testing). I was confused when I tried that,
I was thinking I had 1GB physical, and was trying to demonstrate
that pagetable_init then left pgd[2] empty_zero, corrupted by
vmalloc. But it must have been something else, I didn't
investigate and returned to testing my own patch.

config.in: you're not offering user address space size configuration
when CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G, perhaps because you know of the boot failure
I got, but it's useful then too: I've added choice (without 3.5GB).
init.c: well, I resisted many of the changes I made earlier,
but had to simplify pagetable_init for the pgd[2] empty_zero issue,
it then made sense to simplify its #ifdefs and remove fixrange_init.
highmem.h: just removed the comment about "single pte table".
pgtable.h: parentheses around ptep in pte_kunmap(ptep) macro
