x86/kasan: Fix boot with 5-level paging and KASAN



Since commit d52888aa ("x86/mm: Move LDT remap out of KASLR region on
5-level paging") kernel doesn't boot with KASAN on 5-level paging machines.
The bug is actually in early_p4d_offset() and introduced by commit
12a8cc7f ("x86/kasan: Use the same shadow offset for 4- and 5-level paging")

early_p4d_offset() tries to convert pgd_val(*pgd) value to a physical
address. This doesn't make sense because pgd_val() already contains the
physical address.

It did work prior to commit d52888aa because the result of
"__pa_nodebug(pgd_val(*pgd)) & PTE_PFN_MASK" was the same as "pgd_val(*pgd)
& PTE_PFN_MASK". __pa_nodebug() just set some high bits which were masked
out by applying PTE_PFN_MASK.

After the change of the PAGE_OFFSET offset in commit d52888aa
__pa_nodebug(pgd_val(*pgd)) started to return a value with more high bits
set and PTE_PFN_MASK wasn't enough to mask out all of them. So it returns a
wrong not even canonical address and crashes on the attempt to dereference
it.

Switch back to pgd_val() & PTE_PFN_MASK to cure the issue.
