Subject: [PATCH 2/2] x86/boot/compressed/64: Fix moving page table out of trampoline memory

top_pgtable address has to be calculated relative to where the kernel
image will be relocated for decompression, not relative to position of
kernel is running at the moment. We do the same for the rest of page
table we use the stage. It makes them safe from being overwritten during
decompression.

Calculate the address of top_pgtable in assembly and pass down to
cleanup_trampoline().

Move the page table to .pgtable section where the rest of page tables
are. The section is @nobits so we save 4k in kernel image.
