The pl2e and pl1e variables are heavily (ab)used in that function.  It
is fine at the moment because all page tables are always mapped so
there is no need to track the life time of each variable.

We will soon have the requirement to map and unmap page tables. We
need to track the life time of each variable to avoid leakage.

Introduce some l{1,2}t variables with limited scope so that we can
track life time of pointers to xen page tables more easily.

No functional change.

With adjustments similar to whatever gets done for patch 3
(i.e. minimally const-ness)
