Dave Hansen 6baf4bec02 x86/espfix: Document use of _PAGE_GLOBAL
The "normal" kernel page table creation mechanisms using
PAGE_KERNEL_* page protections will never set _PAGE_GLOBAL with PTI.
The few places in the kernel that always want _PAGE_GLOBAL must
avoid using PAGE_KERNEL_*.

Document that we want it here and its use is not accidental.
