[PATCHv2 8/8] x86/espfix: Add support 5-level paging

Show all headers | View raw

We don't need extra virtual address space for ESPFIX, so it stays within
one PUD page table for both 4- and 5-level paging.

Redefining ESPFIX_BASE_ADDR using P4D_SHIFT instead of PGDIR_SHIFT would
make it stay in the same place regarding of paging mode.

 v2:
  - make ESPFIX_BASE_ADDR the same for both paging modes.
