sim-se: Initialize shared page table base upon clone
When the clone syscall is called, a new process is created which
allocates a new page table. If clone was called with CLONE_THREAD, the
page table of that new process is then marked as shared. Next, initState
is called on the process which calls the page table's initState. For the
multi level page table, initState only sets the base pointer if shared
is false. This means that in this order the base pointer of the new page
table is not currently initialized causing spurious errors.
To fix this, the page table is explicitly initialized after the new
process and new page table are created but before the page table is
marked as shared. The process initState continues as normal and the new
page table's base pointer is not modified by further calls to initState
as it is already marked shared.
