[PATCH] x86_64: Unmap NULL during early bootup

We should zap the low mappings, as soon as possible, so that we can catch
kernel bugs more effectively. Previously early boot had NULL mapped
and didn't trap on NULL references.

This patch introduces boot_level4_pgt, which will always have low identity
addresses mapped.  Druing boot, all the processors will use this as their
level4 pgt.  On BP, we will switch to init_level4_pgt as soon as we enter C
code and zap the low mappings as soon as we are done with the usage of
identity low mapped addresses.  On AP's we will zap the low mappings as
soon as we jump to C code.
