Subject: [PATCHv5 0/7] 5-level paging changes for v4.18

Here's several patches that I would like to queue for v4.18. Please review
and consider applying.

In this version I've addressed Thomas' feedback.

Changing __pgtable_l5_enabled to __initdata is not as trivial as I hoped.
It requires few tricks to avoid section mismatch. I'm not sure if it worth
the gain. We can keep it __ro_after_init.

If you feel it's too invasive, just drop last three patches.

Kirill A. Shutemov (7):
  x86/boot/compressed/64: Fix trampoline page table address calculation
  x86/mm: Unify pgtable_l5_enabled usage in early boot code
  x86/mm: Stop pretending pgtable_l5_enabled is a variable
  x86/mm: Introduce 'no5lvl' kernel parameter
  x86/cpu: Move early cpu initialization into a separate translation
    unit
  x86/mm: Mark p4d_offset() __always_inline
  x86/mm: Mark __pgtable_l5_enabled __initdata
