Pull x86 fix from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A single fix for the handling of unpopulated sub-pmd spaces.

  The copy & pasta from the corresponding s390 code screwed up the
  address calculation for marking the sub-pmd ranges via memset by
  omitting the ALIGN_DOWN() to calculate the proper start address.

  It's a mystery why this code is not generic and shared because there
  is nothing architecture specific in there, but that's too intrusive
  for a backportable fix"
