x86/boot/compressed/64: Detect and handle 5-level paging at boot-time
Prerequisite for fixing the current problem of instantaneous reboots when a 5-level paging kernel is booted on 4-level paging hardware. At the same time this change prepares the decompression code to boot-time switching between 4- and 5-level paging. [ tglx: Folded the GCC < 5 fix. ] Fixes: 77ef56e4f0fb ("x86: Enable 5-level paging support via CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y") Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
