Below is a patch against 4.19-rc4, verified with earlycon
working fine, please review, thanks!

Subject: [PATCH] x86/mm: Expand static page table for fixmap space

We met a kernel panic when enabling earlycon, which is due to
the fixmap address of earlycon is not statically setup.

Currently the static fixmap setup in head_64.S only covers 2M
virtual address space, while it acutually could be in 4M space
with different kernel configurations.

So increase the static space to 4M for now by defining FIXMAP_PMD_NUM
to 2, and add a build time check for future possible overflow so that
the macro could be increased accordingly.
