Add an arch_alloc_page to match arch_free_page.


umm.. why?


I had a future patch to more kernel_map_pages into it, but couldn't
decide if that's a generic kernel feature that is only implemented in
2 architectures, or an architecture speicifc feature. So I left it out.

But at least Martin wanted a hook here for his volatile pages patches,
so I thought I'd submit this patch anyway.
