x86/mm: account for PGDIR_SIZE alignment
Patch for -stable. Function find_early_table_space removed upstream.
Fixes panic in alloc_low_page due to pgt_buf overflow during
init_memory_mapping.
find_early_table_space sizes pgt_buf based upon the size of the
memory being mapped, but it does not take into account the alignment
of the memory. When the region being mapped spans a 512GB (PGDIR_SIZE)
alignment, a panic from alloc_low_pages occurs.
kernel_physical_mapping_init takes into account PGDIR_SIZE alignment.
This causes an extra call to alloc_low_page to be made. This extra call
isn't accounted for by find_early_table_space and causes a kernel panic.
Change is to take into account PGDIR_SIZE alignment in find_early_table_space.
