x86: Lift restriction on the location of FIX_BTMAP_*
The early ioremap fixmap entries cover half (or for 32-bit non-PAE, a quarter) of a page table, yet they got uncondtitionally aligned so far to a 256-entry boundary. This is not necessary if the range of page table entries anyway falls into a single page table. This buys back, for (theoretically) 50% of all configurations (25% of all non-PAE ones), at least some of the lowmem necessarily lost with commit e621bd18958ef5dbace3129ebe17a0a475e127d9.
