x86/kexec: Allocate 8k PGDs for PTI

Fuzzing the PTI-x86-32 code with trinity showed unhandled
kernel paging request oops-messages that looked a lot like
silent data corruption.

Lot's of debugging and testing lead to the kexec-32bit code,
which is still allocating 4k PGDs when PTI is enabled. But
since it uses native_set_pud() to build the page-table, it
will unevitably call into __pti_set_user_pgtbl(), which
writes beyond the allocated 4k page.

Use PGD_ALLOCATION_ORDER to allocate PGDs in the kexec code
to fix the issue.
