x86/setup: Fix low identity map for >= 2GB kernel range

commit 68accac3 upstream.

The commit f5f3497c extended the low identity mapping. However, if
the kernel uses more than 2 GB (VMSPLIT_2G_OPT or VMSPLIT_1G memory
split), the normal memory mapping is overwritten by the low identity
mapping causing a crash. To avoid overwritting, limit the low identity
map to cover only memory before kernel range (PAGE_OFFSET).

Fixes: f5f3497c "x86/setup: Extend low identity map to cover whole kernel range
