x86/mm/hotplug: Pass sync_global_pgds() a correct argument in remove_pagetable()
commit 5255e0a79fcc0ff47b387af92bd9ef5729b1b859 upstream.
When hot-adding memory after hot-removing memory, following call
traces are shown:
kernel BUG at arch/x86/mm/init_64.c:206!

The patch-set fixes the issue.
This patch (of 2):
remove_pagetable() gets start argument and passes the argument
to sync_global_pgds(). In this case, the argument must not be
modified. If the argument is modified and passed to
sync_global_pgds(), sync_global_pgds() does not correctly
synchronize PGD to PGD entries of all processes MM since
synchronized range of memory [start, end] is wrong.
Unfortunately the start argument is modified in
remove_pagetable(). So this patch fixes the issue.
