Subject[PATCH 3.2 136/152] Revert "x86, mm: Set NX across entire PMD at boot"
3.2.67-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

This reverts commit a5c187d92d2ce30315f333b9dff33af832e8b443 which
was commit 45e2a9d4701d8c624d4a4bcdd1084eae31e92f58 upstream.

The previous commit caused suspend/resume to stop working on at least
some systems - specifically, the system would reboot when woken.
