init_mm->pgd is always swapper_pg_dir[] which is known
at build time.
Directly use the later instead of loading it from init_mm
struct at every time.

Dropping this patch after feedback from Michael:
no other arches do it. (swapper_pg_dir)
It would also make us the only arch other than ia64 (which is old and
probably going to get removed soon) defining pgd_offset_k().
