Revert "x86/mm: Expand static page table for fixmap space"
This reverts commit 3a8304b7, which was upstream commit 05ab1d8a. Ben Hutchings writes: This backport is incorrect. The part that updated __startup_64() in arch/x86/kernel/head64.c was dropped, presumably because that function doesn't exist in 4.9. However that seems to be an essential of the fix. In 4.9 the startup_64 routine in arch/x86/kernel/head_64.S would need to be changed instead. I also found that this introduces new boot-time warnings on some systems if CONFIG_DEBUG_WX is enabled. So, unless someone provides fixes for those issues, I think this should be reverted for the 4.9 branch. Signed-off-by:Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
