Kernel Fault: Code=15 (Data TLB miss fault) at addr 0f7fe3c0

This happens because patching static key code temporarily maps it via
fixmap and if it happens before page allocator is initialized set_fixmap()
cannot allocate memory using pte_alloc_kernel().
Make sure that fixmap page tables are preallocated early so that
pte_offset_kernel() in set_fixmap() never resorts to pte allocation.

Now queued up in parisc for-next tree.
Thanks to Christoph for bisecting and Mike for coming up with this patch!
