x86/mm: Factor out pageattr _PAGE_GLOBAL setting
The pageattr code has a pattern repeated where it sets _PAGE_GLOBAL
for present PTEs but clears it for non-present PTEs. The intention
is to keep _PAGE_GLOBAL from getting confused with _PAGE_PROTNONE
since _PAGE_GLOBAL is for present PTEs and _PAGE_PROTNONE is for
non-present
But, this pattern makes no sense. Effectively, it says, if you use
the pageattr code, always set _PAGE_GLOBAL when _PAGE_PRESENT.
canon_pgprot() will clear it if unsupported (because it masks the
value with __supported_pte_mask) but we *always* set it. Even if
canon_pgprot() did not filter _PAGE_GLOBAL, it would be OK.
_PAGE_GLOBAL is ignored when CR4.PGE=0 by the hardware.
This unconditional setting of _PAGE_GLOBAL is a problem when we have
PTI and non-PTI and we want some areas to have _PAGE_GLOBAL and some
not.
This updated version of the code says:
1. Clear _PAGE_GLOBAL when !_PAGE_PRESENT
2. Never set _PAGE_GLOBAL implicitly
3. Allow _PAGE_GLOBAL to be in cpa.set_mask
4. Allow _PAGE_GLOBAL to be inherited from previous PTE
