arm64/mm: avoid fixmap race condition when create pud mapping
The 'fixmap' is a global resource and is used recursively by
create pud mapping(), leading to a potential race condition in the
presence of a concurrent call to alloc_init_pud():
kernel_init thread virtio-mem workqueue thread
================== ===========================
alloc_init_pud(...) alloc_init_pud(...)
pudp = pud_set_fixmap_offset(...) pudp = pud_set_fixmap_offset(...)
READ_ONCE(*pudp)
pud_clear_fixmap(...)
READ_ONCE(*pudp) // CRASH!
As kernel may sleep during creating pud mapping, introduce a mutex lock to
serialise use of the fixmap entries by alloc_init_pud(). However, there is
no need for locking in early boot stage and it doesn't work well with
KASLR enabled when early boot. So, enable lock when system_state doesn't
equal to "SYSTEM_BOOTING".
