Before marking pmd_val as invalid_pte_table, factor in existing value
for pmd_val.

Hi David,

I think you missed my feedback on this patch -- you should be the primary
S.O.B.  on this, and at a minimum, it needs a better description of just why
this is required (if it actually is) on Cavium CPUs, but not on other boards.

Thanks,
Paul.
