x86/mm: Do not use set_{pud, pmd}_safe() when splitting a large page
The commit 0a9fe8ca844d ("x86/mm: Validate kernel_physical_mapping_init() PTE population") triggers this warning in SEV guests: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at arch/x86/include/asm/pgalloc.h:87 phys_pmd_init+0x30d/0x386 Call Trace: kernel_physical_mapping_init+0xce/0x259 early_set_memory_enc_dec+0x10f/0x160 kvm_smp_prepare_boot_cpu+0x71/0x9d start_kernel+0x1c9/0x50b secondary_startup_64+0xa4/0xb0 A SEV guest calls kernel_physical_mapping_init() to clear the encryption mask from an existing mapping. While doing so, it also splits large pages into smaller. To split a page, kernel_physical_mapping_init() allocates a new page and updates the existing entry. The set_{pud,pmd}_safe() helpers trigger a warning when updating an entry with a page in the present state. Add a new kernel_physical_mapping_change() helper which uses the non-safe variants of set_{pmd,pud,p4d}() and {pmd,pud,p4d}_populate() routines when updating the entry. Since kernel_physical_mapping_change() may replace an existing entry with a new entry, the caller is responsible to flush the TLB at the end. Change early_set_memory_enc_dec() to use kernel_physical_mapping_change() when it wants to clear the memory encryption mask from the page table entry.
