From: Mike Rapoport <rppt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: alpha: switch to generic version of pte allocation
alpha allocates PTE pages with __get_free_page() and uses
GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO for the allocations.
Switch it to the generic version that does exactly the same thing for the
kernel page tables and adds __GFP_ACCOUNT for the user PTEs.
The alpha pte_free() and pte_free_kernel() versions are identical to the
generic ones and can be simply dropped.
