Hrm... Hibler-style pmaps allocate PT pages at pmap_enter() time, but I'm
assuming it's done the way it is in the i386 pmap because the page table
VM space actually resides in the process's VM map...

UVM + PMAP_NEW on the i386 shouldn't have this problem, but it would be
nice to address it w/ Mach VM until UVM Is Everywhere.
