With the x86-based altp2m implementation, we experienced the problem
that altp2m-teardowns did not clean the pages. As a result, later
re-initialization reused the pages, which subsequently led to faults or
crashes due to reused mappings. We additionally clean the altp2m pages
and for the sake of completeness we clean the hostp2m tables as well.

Thank you very much.
