The current calculation of the 'next' virtual address in the
page table initialization functions in arch/x86/mm/ident_map.c
doesn't protect against wrapping to zero.

This is a theoretical issue that cannot happen currently,
the problematic case is possible only if the user sets a
high enough x86_mapping_info::offset value - which no
current code in the upstream kernel does.

( The wrapping to zero only occurs if the top PGD entry is accessed.
  There are no such users upstream. Only hibernate_64.c uses
  x86_mapping_info::offset, and it operates on the direct mapping
  range, which is not the top PGD entry. )

Should such an overflow happen, it can result in page table
corruption and a hang.

To future-proof this code, replace the manual 'next' calculation
with p?d_addr_end() which handles wrapping correctly.

[ Backporter's note: there's no need to backport this patch. ]
