commit c48b5a4cf3125adb679e28ef093f66ff81368d05 upstream.
So it turns out that we have to do two passes of
pti_clone_entry_text(), once before initcalls, such that device and
late initcalls can use user-mode-helper / modprobe and once after
free_initmem() / mark_readonly().
Now obviously mark_readonly() can cause PMD splits, and
pti_clone_pgtable() doesn't like that much.
Allow the late clone to split PMDs so that pagetables stay in sync.
