Subject: [PATCH 4.15 086/105] x86/efi: Free efi_pgd with free_pages()

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

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

From: Waiman Long <longman@...hat.com>

commit 06ace26f4e6fcf747e890a39193be811777a048a upstream.

The efi_pgd is allocated as PGD_ALLOCATION_ORDER pages and therefore must
also be freed as PGD_ALLOCATION_ORDER pages with free_pages().

Fixes: d9e9a6418065 ("x86/mm/pti: Allocate a separate user PGD")
