In previous patch,
before we jump to the new kernel entry, we add the
text mapping to temp_level4_pgt,

         /* switch over to the temporary kernel text mapping */
        movq    %r8, (%r9)
If I understand correctly,  r9 contains the virtual address
of restore_pgd_addr, since the page table for restore_pgd_addr might be
incoherent across hibernation(as NX patch changes the kernel text mapping
to dynamically mapping), so we might write pmd entry to an incorrect place in
temp_level4_pgt?
