x86/mm: Fix _pgd_alloc() for Xen PV mode
Recently _pgd_alloc() was switched from using __get_free_pages() to pagetable_alloc_noprof(), which might return a compound page in case the allocation order is larger than 0. On x86 this will be the case if CONFIG_MITIGATION_PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION is set, even if PTI has been disabled at runtime. When running as a Xen PV guest (this will always disable PTI), using a compound page for a PGD will result in VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS being triggered when the Xen code tries to pin the PGD. Fix the Xen issue together with the not needed 8k allocation for a PGD with PTI disabled by replacing PGD_ALLOCATION_ORDER with an inline helper returning the needed order for PGD allocations.
