UPSTREAM: arm64: mm: move pgd_cache initialisation to pgtable_cache_init
Initialising the suppport for EFI runtime services requires us to allocate a pgd off the back of an early_initcall. On systems where the PGD_SIZE is smaller than PAGE_SIZE (e.g. 64k pages and 48-bit VA), the pgd_cache isn't initialised at this stage, and we panic with a NULL dereference during boot: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 __create_mapping.isra.5+0x84/0x350 create_pgd_mapping+0x20/0x28 efi_create_mapping+0x5c/0x6c arm_enable_runtime_services+0x154/0x1e4 do_one_initcall+0x8c/0x190 kernel_init_freeable+0x84/0x1ec kernel_init+0x10/0xe0 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x50 This patch fixes the problem by initialising the pgd_cache earlier, in the pgtable_cache_init callback, which sounds suspiciously like what it was intended for.
