Subject: [PATCH 27/30] x86, kaiser: un-poison PGDs at runtime


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

With KAISER Kernel PGDs that map userspace are "poisoned" with
the NX bit.  This ensures that if a kernel->user CR3 switch is
missed, userspace crashes instead of running in an unhardened
state.

This code will be needed in a moment when KAISER is turned
on and off at runtime.

Note that an __ASSEMBLY__ #ifdef is now required since kaiser.h
is indirectly included into assembly.
