x86/mm: Drop usage of __flush_tlb_all() in kernel_physical_mapping_init()
Commit:
f77084d96355 "x86/mm/pat: Disable preemption around __flush_tlb_all()"
addressed a case where __flush_tlb_all() is called without preemption
being disabled. It also left a warning to catch other cases where
preemption is not disabled.
That warning triggers for the memory hotplug path which is also used for
persistent memory enabling:
WARNING: CPU: 35 PID: 911 at ./arch/x86/include/asm/tlbflush.h:460
RIP: 0010:__flush_tlb_all+0x1b/0x3a
[..]
Call Trace:
phys_pud_init+0x29c/0x2bb
kernel_physical_mapping_init+0xfc/0x219

Andy wondered why a path that can sleep was using __flush_tlb_all() [1]
and Dave confirmed the expectation for TLB flush is for modifying /
invalidating existing PTE entries, but not initial population [2]. Drop
the usage of __flush_tlb_all() in phys_{p4d,pud,pmd}_init() on the
expectation that this path is only ever populating empty entries for the
linear map. Note, at linear map teardown time there is a call to the
all-cpu flush_tlb_all() to invalidate the removed mappings.
