If we end up without a PGD or PUD entry backing the gate area, don't
BUG -- just fail gracefully.

It's not entirely implausible that this could happen some day on
x86.  It doesn't right now even with an execute-only emulated
vsyscall page because the fixmap shares the PUD, but the core mm
code shouldn't rely on that particular detail to avoid OOPSing.
