Christophe Leroy 2807273f5e powerpc/fixmap: fix crash with HIGHMEM
Commit f2bb86937d ("powerpc/fixmap: don't clear fixmap area in
paging_init()") removed the clearing of fixmap area in order to
avoid clearing fixmapped areas set earlier.

However unlike all other users of fixmap which use __set_fixmap(),
HIGHMEM functions directly use __set_pte_at(). This means
the page table must pre-exist, otherwise the following crash
can be encoutered due to the lack of entry in the PGD.

Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]

Partially revert that commit to still clear the fixmap area dedicated
to HIGHMEM.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
