arm64/mm: Sanity check PTE address before runtime P4D/PUD folding
The runtime P4D/PUD folding logic assumes that the respective pgd_t* and p4d_t* arguments are pointers into actual page tables that are part of the hierarchy being operated on. This may not always be the case, and we have been bitten once by this already [0], where the argument was actually a stack variable, and in this case, the logic does not work at all. So let's add a VM_BUG_ON() for each case, to ensure that the address of the provided page table entry is consistent with the address being translated.
