[PATCH] i386: Add missing !X86_PAE dependincy to the 2G/2G split.
Only 1GB-aligned kernel/user splits are now handled for PAE. The 2GB/2GB split attempts to avoid aliasing vmallocspace with the 1:1 mapping for physical memory by using an actual split of 1.875/2.125 to accommodate 128MB of vmallocspace out of what would otherwise be a full 2GB for userspace. That attempt disturbs the alignment required by PAE for 2GB/2GB splits, and furthermore does not provide a 2GB/2GB split as advertised. This patch resolves the issues here in two manners. The first is by providing a true 2GB/2GB split in addition to the 1.875/2.125 split. The second is by renaming the 1.875/2.125 split to CONFIG_VMSPLIT_2G_OPT analogously to CONFIG_VMSPLIT_3G_OPT, which performs a similar manuever to avoid aliasing vmallocspace with the 1:1 mapping for physical memory around the 3GB boundary. With the 1.875/2.125 split properly-named, its config option is then tagged as depending on !HIGHMEM to express the PAE implementation's current inability to deal with such unaligned splits. This patch is essentially a combination of two patches, one written by Eric Biederman and the other by Eric Dumazet. If they could add their Signed-off-by: to this, I'd be much obliged.
