I cleaned up the kmap interface yesterday (in linux/bigmem.h).

Now I am cleaning up the stuff still more putting all the bigmem common
code and variables in linux/mm/bigmem.c (separated by the arch specific
arch/i386/mm/bigmem.c) so there won't be duplicated sources if some other
arch (not only i386) will want to take advantage of the bigmem common
interface (I just heard some interest in this field ;).
