kaiser: do not set _PAGE_NX on pgd_none


native_pgd_clear() uses native_set_pgd(), so native_set_pgd() must
avoid setting the _PAGE_NX bit on an otherwise pgd_none() entry:
usually that just generated a warning on exit, but sometimes
more mysterious and damaging failures (our production machines
could not complete booting).

The original fix to this just avoided adding _PAGE_NX to
an empty entry; but eventually more problems surfaced with kexec,
and EFI mapping expected to be a problem too.  So now instead
change native_set_pgd() to update shadow only if _PAGE_USER:

A few places (kernel/machine_kexec_64.c, platform/efi/efi_64.c for sure)
use set_pgd() to set up a temporary internal virtual address space, with
physical pages remapped at what Kaiser regards as userspace addresses:
Kaiser then assumes a shadow pgd follows, which it will try to corrupt.

This appears to be responsible for the recent kexec and kdump failures;
though it's unclear how those did not manifest as a problem before.
Ah, the shadow pgd will only be assumed to "follow" if the requested
pgd is on an even-numbered page: so I suppose it was going wrong 50%
of the time all along.

What we need is a flag to set_pgd(), to tell it we're dealing with
userspace.  Er, isn't that what the pgd's _PAGE_USER bit is saying?
Add a test for that.  But we cannot do the same for pgd_clear()
(which may be called to clear corrupted entries - set aside the
question of "corrupt in which pgd?" until later), so there just
rely on pgd_clear() not being called in the problematic cases -
with a WARN_ON_ONCE() which should fire half the time if it is.

But this is getting too big for an inline function: move it into
arch/x86/mm/kaiser.c (which then demands a boot/compressed mod);
and de-void and de-space native_get_shadow/normal_pgd() while here.
