x86/boot/compressed/64: Use page table in trampoline memory

If a bootloader enables 64-bit mode with 4-level paging, we might need to
switch over to 5-level paging. The switching requires the disabling
paging. It works fine if kernel itself is loaded below 4G.

But if the bootloader put the kernel above 4G (i.e. in kexec() case),
we would lose control as soon as paging is disabled, because the code
becomes unreachable to the CPU.

To handle the situation, we need a trampoline in lower memory that would
take care of switching on 5-level paging.

Apart from the trampoline code itself we also need a place to store
top-level page table in lower memory as we don't have a way to load
64-bit values into CR3 in 32-bit mode. We only really need 8 bytes there
as we only use the very first entry of the page table. But we allocate a
whole page anyway.

This patch switches 32-bit code to use page table in trampoline memory.
