This is a really rare series that adds functionality _and_ removes code
overall. It looks really good to me. The x86 implementation seems to be
captured just fine in the generic one:

One super tiny nit is that the PAE pgd _can_ be allocated using
__get_free_pages(). It was originally there for Xen, but I think it's
being used for PTI only at this point and the comments are wrong-ish.
I kinda think we should just get rid of the 32-bit kmem_cache entirely.
