6657fca06e x86/mm: Allow to boot without LA57 if CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y
All pieces of the puzzle are in place and we can now allow to boot with
CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y on a machine without LA57 support.

Kernel will detect that LA57 is missing and fold p4d at runtime.

Update the documentation and the Kconfig option description to reflect the
change.

77ef56e4f0 x86: Enable 5-level paging support via CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y
Most of things are in place and we can enable support for 5-level paging.

The patch makes XEN_PV and XEN_PVH dependent on !X86_5LEVEL. Both are
not ready to work with 5-level paging.
