Subject: [PATCHv9 3/4] x86/boot/compressed/64: Prepare trampoline memory

If a bootloader enables 64-bit mode with 4-level paging, we might need to
switch over to 5-level paging. The switching requires the disabling
paging. It works fine if kernel itself is loaded below 4G.

But if the bootloader put the kernel above 4G (not sure if anybody does
this), we would lose control as soon as paging is disabled, because the
code becomes unreachable to the CPU.

To handle the situation, we need a trampoline in lower memory that would
take care of switching on 5-level paging.

Apart from the trampoline code itself we also need a place to store
top-level page table in lower memory as we don't have a way to load
64-bit values into CR3 in 32-bit mode. We only really need 8 bytes there
as we only use the very first entry of the page table. But we allocate a
whole page anyway.

We cannot have the code in the same page as the page table because there's
a risk that a CPU would read the page table speculatively and get confused
by seeing garbage. It's never a good idea to have junk in PTE entries
visible to the CPU.

We also need a small stack in the trampoline to re-enable long mode via
long return. But stack and code can share the page just fine.

The same trampoline can be used to switch from 5- to 4-level paging
mode, like when starting 4-level paging kernel via kexec() when original
kernel worked in 5-level paging mode.

This patch changes paging_prepare() to find a right spot in lower memory
for the trampoline. Then it copies the trampoline code there and sets up
the new top-level page table for 5-level paging.

We also add cleanup_trampoline() that restores the trampoline memory
back once we've done.

At this point we do all the preparation, but don't use trampoline yet.
It will be done in the following patch.

The trampoline will be used even on 4-level paging machines. This way we
will get better test coverage and the keep the trampoline code in shape.
