Kyle has reported occasional crashes when booting a kernel in 5-level
paging mode with KASLR enabled:

Kyle bisected the issue to commit b569c18434 ("x86/mm/KASLR: Reduce
randomization granularity for 5-level paging to 1GB")
Before this commit PAGE_OFFSET was always aligned to P4D_SIZE when booting
5-level paging mode. But now only PUD_SIZE alignment is guaranteed.
In the case I was able to reproduce the following vaddr/paddr values were
observed in phys_p4d_init():
Iteration vaddr paddr
1 0xff4228027fe00000 0x033fe00000
2 0xff42287f40000000 0x8000000000
'vaddr' in both cases belongs to the same p4d entry.
But due to the original assumption that PAGE_OFFSET is aligned to P4D_SIZE
this overlap cannot be handled correctly. The code assumes strictly aligned
entries and unconditionally increments the index into the P4D table, which
creates false duplicate entries. Once the index reaches the end, the last
entry in the page table is missing.
Aside of that the 'paddr >= paddr_end' condition can evaluate wrong which
causes an P4D entry to be cleared incorrectly.
Change the loop in phys_p4d_init() to walk purely based on virtual
addresses like __kernel_physical_mapping_init() does. This makes it work
correctly with unaligned virtual addresses.
