Subject: [PATCH 4.14 021/146] x86/mm/64: Make a full PGD-entry size hole in the memory map

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@...nel.org>

commit 9f449772a3106bcdd4eb8fdeb281147b0e99fb30 upstream.

Shrink vmalloc space from 16384TiB to 12800TiB to enlarge the hole starting
at 0xff90000000000000 to be a full PGD entry.

A subsequent patch will use this hole for the pagetable isolation LDT
alias.
