I've missed that we need to change relocate_kernel() to set CR4.LA57
flag if the kernel has 5-level paging enabled.
I avoided to use ifdef CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL here and inferred if we need to
enabled 5-level paging from previous CR4 value. This way the code is
ready for boot-time switching between paging modes.
Fixes: 77ef56e4f0fb ("x86: Enable 5-level paging support via CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y")
