[patch 18/33] xen: xen: ignore RW mapping of RO pages in pagetable_init

[Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org>]

When setting up the initial pagetable, which includes mappings of all
low physical memory, ignore a mapping which tries to set the RW bit on
an RO pte.  An RO pte indicates a page which is part of the current
pagetable, and so it cannot be allowed to become RW.

Once xen_pagetable_setup_done is called, set_pte reverts to its normal
behaviour.
