You're right; with the cleanup, I agree it becomes more general. We
can move it to arch/x86/include/asm/asm.h.

I'll put it in a separate commit even preceding this one, as it's
actually a bug in the existing fixup pointer logic that I noticed when
transitioning to the use of the RIP-relative macro. Specifically,
early_dynamic_pgts is a global variable just like next_early_pgt and
thus also needs to be fixed up to guarantee the correct address is
used across toolchains.
