Dave Hansen d2479a3049 x86/pti: Fix boot problems from Global-bit setting
commit 16dce603adc9de4237b7bf2ff5c5290f34373e7b

Part of the global bit _setting_ patches also includes clearing the
Global bit when it should not be enabled.  That is done with
set_memory_nonglobal(), which uses change_page_attr_clear() in
pageattr.c under the covers.

The TLB flushing code inside pageattr.c has has checks like
BUG_ON(irqs_disabled()), looking for interrupt disabling that might
cause deadlocks.  But, these also trip in early boot on certain
preempt configurations.  Just copy the existing BUG_ON() sequence from
cpa_flush_range() to the other two sites and check for early boot.

Fixes: 39114b7a7 (x86/pti: Never implicitly clear _PAGE_GLOBAL for kernel image)

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
