This reverts commit 54322d95309d9aa4cb77b34ee4b6c8b541f3e21f. The 6.6.y backport removes the clearing performed by early_pgtable_alloc(). Its replacement clears allocations made by the generic page-table walkers, but 6.6's create_idmap() still allocates an extra root level directly when a sub-48-bit VA kernel is loaded sufficiently high in physical memory.
Queued for 6.6, thanks. -- Thanks, Sasha
