Because of patch https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/766777/ which 
modifies patch_instruction() to use an alternative mapping.
Compilation fails on PPC32 because map_kernel_page() only exists on 
PPC64. However we have map_page() which does the same on PPC32, hence 
the renaming.

Yes I did that so that lib/code_patching.c sees it.
All users of map_page() already include pgtable in a way or another.
