Subject: [PATCH 4.14 015/146] x86/mm/pti: Share cpu_entry_area with user space page tables

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

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

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

commit f7cfbee91559ca7e3e961a00ffac921208a115ad upstream.

Share the cpu entry area so the user space and kernel space page tables
have the same P4D page.
