x86/mm: Make PGDIR_SHIFT and PTRS_PER_P4D variable



For boot-time switching between 4- and 5-level paging we need to be able
to fold p4d page table level at runtime. It requires variable
PGDIR_SHIFT and PTRS_PER_P4D.

The change doesn't affect the kernel image size much:

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
8628091	4734304	1368064	14730459	 e0c4db	vmlinux.before
8628393	4734340	1368064	14730797	 e0c62d	vmlinux.after
