 Updates for x86 memory management:
 
  - Make LAM enablement safe vs. kernel threads using a process mm
    temporarily as switching back to the process would not update CR3 and
    therefore not enable LAM causing faults in user space when using tagged
    pointers. Cure it by synchronizing LAM enablement via IPIs to all CPUs
    which use the related mm.
 
  - Cure a LAM harmless inconsistency between CR3 and the state during
    context switch. It's both confusing and prone to lead to real bugs
 
  - Handle alt stack handling for threads which run with a non-zero
    protection key. The non-zero key prevents the kernel to access the
    alternate stack. Cure it by temporarily enabling all protection keys for
    the alternate stack setup/restore operations.
 
  - Provide a EFI config table identity mapping for kexec kernel to prevent
    kexec fails because the new kernel cannot access the config table array
 
  - Use GB pages only when a full GB is mapped in the identity map as
    otherwise the CPU can speculate into reserved areas after the end of
    memory which causes malfunction on UV systems.
 
  - Remove the noisy and pointless SRAT table dump during boot
 
  - Use is_ioremap_addr() for iounmap() address range checks instead of
    high_memory. is_ioremap_addr() is more precise.
