Subject: x86/mm/pti: Allocate a separate user PGD

From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>

commit d9e9a6418065bb376e5de8d93ce346939b9a37a6 upstream.

Kernel page table isolation requires to have two PGDs. One for the kernel,
which contains the full kernel mapping plus the user space mapping and one
for user space which contains the user space mappings and the minimal set
of kernel mappings which are required by the architecture to be able to
transition from and to user space.

Add the necessary preliminaries.

[ tglx: Split out from the big kaiser dump. EFI fixup from Kirill ]
