From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
early_top_pgt[] is assigned from code that executes from a 1:1 mapping
so it cannot use a plain access from C. Replace the use of
fixup_pointer() with RIP_REL_REF(), which is better and simpler.
For legibility and to align with the code that populates the lower page
table levels, statically initialize the root level page table with an
entry pointing to level3_kernel_pgt[], and overwrite it when needed to
enable 5-level paging.
