[patch 12/15] vmemmap: use clear_table to initialise page tables.

From: Martin Schwidefsky
Date: Tue Apr 29 2008 - 10:18:46 EST


From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@xxxxxxxxxx>

Always use clear_table to initialise page tables. The overlapping
memcpy is just a leftover of a previous version that wasn't fully
converted to clear_table.
