Joerg Roedel d6ef1f194b x86/mm: Prevent kernel Oops in PTDUMP code with HIGHPTE=y
The walk_pte_level() function just uses __va to get the virtual address of
the PTE page, but that breaks when the PTE page is not in the direct
mapping with HIGHPTE=y.

The result is an unhandled kernel paging request at some random address
when accessing the current_kernel or current_user file.

Use the correct API to access PTE pages.

Fixes: fe770bf031 ('x86: clean up the page table dumper and add 32-bit support')

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.
