x86/pti: Filter at vma->vm_page_prot population



commit ce9962bf7e22bb3891655c349faff618922d4a73

0day reported warnings at boot on 32-bit systems without NX support:

attempted to set unsupported pgprot: 8000000000000025 bits: 8000000000000000 supported: 7fffffffffffffff

The problem is that due to the recent commit which removed auto-massaging
of page protections, filtering page permissions at PTE creation time is not
longer done, so vma->vm_page_prot is passed unfiltered to PTE creation.

Filter the page protections before they are installed in vma->vm_page_prot.

Fixes: fb43d6cb ("x86/mm: Do not auto-massage page protections")
