The range between 0xffff800000000000 and 0xffff87ffffffffff is reserved
for hypervisor and therefore we should not try to follow PGD's indexes
corresponding to those addresses.

While this has always been a problem, with the new W+X warning
mechanism ptdump_walk_pgd_level_core() can now be called during boot,
causing a PV Xen guest to crash.

[ tglx: Replaced the macro with a readable inline ]
