[PATCH 28/37] x86/mm/pti: Map kernel-text to user-space on 32 bit kernels

[Joerg Roedel]

From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@xxxxxxx>

Keeping the kernel text mapped with G bit set keeps its
entries in the TLB across kernel entry/exit and improved the
performance. The 64 bit x86 kernels already do this when
there is no PCID, so do this in 32 bit as well since PCID is
not even supported there.
