In identify_cpu when setting up SMEP/SMAP/UMIP call cr4_set_bits_and_update_boot instead of cr4_set_bits. This ensures that mmu_cr4_features contains those bits, and does not disable those protections when in hibernation asm. setup_arch updates mmu_cr4_features to save what identified features are supported for later use in hibernation asm when cr4 needs to be modified to toggle PGE. cr4 writes happen in restore_image and restore_registers. setup_arch occurs before identify_cpu, this leads to mmu_cr4_features not containing some of the cr4 features which were enabled via identify_cpu when hibernation asm is executed. On CPU bringup when cr4_set_bits_and_update_boot is called mmu_cr4_features will now be written to. For the boot CPU, the __ro_after_init on mmu_cr4_features does not cause a fault. However, __ro_after_init was removed due to it triggering faults on non-boot CPUs.
