The PAE 3-level paging code currently doesn't mitigate L1TF by flipping the offset bits, and uses the high PTE word, thus bits 32-36 for type, 37-63 for offset. The lower word is zeroed, thus systems with less than 4GB memory are safe. With 4GB to 128GB the swap type selects the memory locations vulnerable to L1TF; with even more memory, also the swap offfset influences the address. This might be a problem with 32bit PAE guests running on large 64bit hosts. By continuing to keep the whole swap entry in either high or low 32bit word of PTE we would limit the swap size too much. Thus this patch uses the whole PAE PTE with the same layout as the 64bit version does. The macros just become a bit tricky since they assume the arch-dependent swp_entry_t to be 32bit.
