x86/mm/pageattr: Introduce helper function to unmap EFI boot services
Ideally, after kernel assumes control of the platform, firmware shouldn't access EFI boot services code/data regions. But, it's noticed that this is not so true in many x86 platforms. Hence, during boot, kernel reserves EFI boot services code/data regions [1] and maps [2] them to efi_pgd so that call to set_virtual_address_map() doesn't fail. After returning from set_virtual_address_map(), kernel frees the reserved regions [3] but they still remain mapped. Hence, introduce kernel_unmap_pages_in_pgd() which will later be used to unmap EFI boot services code/data regions. While at it modify kernel_map_pages_in_pgd() by: 1. Adding __init modifier because it's always used *only* during boot. 2. Add a warning if it's used after SMP is initialized because it uses __flush_tlb_all() which flushes mappings only on current CPU. Unmapping EFI boot services code/data regions will result in clearing PAGE_PRESENT bit and it shouldn't bother L1TF cases because it's already handled by protnone_mask() at arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable-invert.h.
