That's like the same I had reported by the build robots for sun3, which
I fixed by frobbing pgtable_t. That said, this is probably a more
consistent change.

One note below:

See how it does the nocache dance ^

but never sets it cached again!

Also, the alloc_one_kernel() also suspicioudly doesn't do the nocache
thing.

So either, alloc_one() shouldn't either, or it's all buggered.
