powerpc/fixmap: fix crash with HIGHMEM
Commit f2bb86937d86 ("powerpc/fixmap: don't clear fixmap area in
paging_init()") removed the clearing of fixmap area in order to
avoid clearing fixmapped areas set earlier.
However unlike all other users of fixmap which use __set_fixmap(),
HIGHMEM functions directly use __set_pte_at(). This means
the page table must pre-exist, otherwise the following crash
can be encoutered due to the lack of entry in the PGD.
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
