In cases where we unmap the kernel while running in user space, we rely
on ASIDs to distinguish the minimal trampoline from the full kernel
mapping, and this means we must use non-global attributes for those
mappings, to ensure they are scoped by ASID and will not hit in the TLB
inadvertently.

We only do this when needed, as this is generally more costly in terms
of TLB pressure, and so we boot without these non-global attributes, and
apply them to all existing kernel mappings once all CPUs are up and we
know whether or not the non-global attributes are needed. At this point,
we cannot simply unmap and remap the entire address space, so we have to
update all existing block and page descriptors in place.

Currently, we go through a lot of trouble to perform these updates with
the MMU and caches off, to avoid violating break before make (BBM) rules
imposed by the architecture. Since we make changes to page tables that
are not covered by the ID map, we gain access to those descriptors by
disabling translations altogether. This means that the stores to memory
are issued with device attributes, and require extra care in terms of
coherency, which is costly. We also rely on the ID map to access a
shared flag, which requires the ID map to be executable and writable at
the same time, which is another thing we'd prefer to avoid.

So let's switch to an approach where we replace the kernel mapping with
a minimal mapping of a few pages that can be used for the shared flag,
as well as a minimal, ad-hoc fixmap that we can use to map each page
table in turn as we traverse the hierarchy. This requires one PTE per
level, and an associated page worth of VA space in the temporary
mapping.

Note that table descriptors do not have a non-global attribute, so avoid
setting this bit unnecessarily as well. Also, given that the bulk of
time is spent updating the dense level 3 entries that cover the linear
map, let's just rewrite all block and page entries, and OR the valid bit
into the nG bit position.

On a KVM guest with 64G of memory booting with rodata=full under a
ThunderX2 host (*), this reduces the boot delay from 25 seconds to 50
milliseconds.

(*) ThunderX2 does not need KPTI to mitigate Meltdown so the build was
rigged to enable it nonetheless when taking this measurement as
otherwise, this routine never executes.

v2: - use break before make when remapping the page table pages
    - switch via reserved_pg_dir when going to the temporary page
      tables and back
    - improve comments describing what is going on
    - leave it to the last CPU that leaves to free the temporary pages
