x86/boot/64: Add missing fixup_pointer() for next_early_pgt access

__startup_64() uses fixup_pointer() to access global variables in a
position-independent fashion. Access to next_early_pgt was wrapped into the
helper, but one instance in the 5-level paging branch was missed.

GCC generates a R_X86_64_PC32 PC-relative relocation for the access which
doesn't trigger the issue, but Clang emmits a R_X86_64_32S which leads to
an invalid memory access and system reboot.

Fixes: 187e91fe
