Subject: [PATCH] x86/boot/64/clang: Use fixup_pointer() to access '__supported_pte_mask'

Similarly to commit 187e91fe5e91
("x86/boot/64/clang: Use fixup_pointer() to access 'next_early_pgt'"),
'__supported_pte_mask' must be also accessed using fixup_pointer() to
avoid position-dependent relocations.
