Subject: [PATCH 17/35] x86/pgtable/32: Allocate 8k page-tables when PTI is enabled

From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@...e.de>

Allocate a kernel and a user page-table root when PTI is
enabled. Also allocate a full page per root for PAE because
otherwise the bit to flip in cr3 to switch between them
would be non-constant, which creates a lot of hassle.
Keep that for a later optimization.
