x86, 64bit: #PF handler set page to cover only 2M per #PF
We only map a single 2 MiB page per #PF, even though we should be able to do this a full gigabyte at a time with no additional memory cost. This is a workaround for a broken AMD reference BIOS (and its derivatives in shipping system) which maps a large chunk of memory as WB in the MTRR system but will #MC if the processor wanders off and tries to prefetch that memory, which can happen any time the memory is mapped in the TLB.
