If trampoline code would need to switch between 4- and 5-level paging
modes, we have to use a page table in trampoline memory.
Having it in trampoline memory guarantees that it's below 4G and we can
point CR3 to it from 32-bit trampoline code.
We only use the page table if the desired paging mode doesn't match the
mode we are in. Otherwise the page table is unused and trampoline code
wouldn't touch CR3.
For 4- to 5-level paging transition, we set up current (4-level paging)
CR3 as the first and the only entry in a new top-level page table.
For 5- to 4-level paging transition, copy page table pointed by first
entry in the current top-level page table as our new top-level page
table.
If the page table is used by trampoline we would need to copy it to new
page table outside trampoline and update CR3 before restoring trampoline
memory.

The memory area we found for trampoline shouldn't contain anything
useful. But let's preserve the data anyway. Just to be on safe side.
paging_prepare() would save the data into a buffer.
cleanup_trampoline() would restore it back once we are done with the
trampoline.

If a bootloader enables 64-bit mode with 4-level paging, we might need to
switch over to 5-level paging. The switching requires the disabling of
paging, which works fine if kernel itself is loaded below 4G.
But if the bootloader puts the kernel above 4G (not sure if anybody does
this), we would lose control as soon as paging is disabled, because the
code becomes unreachable to the CPU.
To handle the situation, we need a trampoline in lower memory that would
take care of switching on 5-level paging.
This patch finds a spot in low memory for a trampoline.
The heuristic is based on code in reserve_bios_regions().
We find the end of low memory based on BIOS and EBDA start addresses.
The trampoline is put just before end of low memory. It's mimic approach
taken to allocate memory for realtime trampoline.

Rename l5_paging_required() to paging_prepare() and change the
interface of the function.
This is a preparation for the next patch, which would make the function
also allocate memory for the 32-bit trampoline.
The function now returns a 128-bit structure. RAX would return
trampoline memory address (zero for now) and RDX would indicate if we
need to enable 5-level paging.

Prerequisite for fixing the current problem of instantaneous reboots when a
5-level paging kernel is booted on 4-level paging hardware.
At the same time this change prepares the decompression code to boot-time
switching between 4- and 5-level paging.
