To make it work stop_this_cpu() would need to be modified to use
smp_ops.crash_play_dead() instead of native_halt(). But name of the
callback doesn't match the function, so I renamed it to
smp_ops.stop_this_cpu().

Yeah. Benefit is not clear to me. I will leave it as is.

I will consider moving this cleanup in common code. And maybe fix other
users of kernel_ident_mapping_init(). Nobody seems to care to cleanup page
tables on ENOMEM.
