Revert "x86/mm: Mark __pgtable_l5_enabled __initdata"

This reverts commit e4e961e36f063484c48bed919013c106d178995d.

We need to use early version of pgtable_l5_enabled() in
early_identify_cpu() as this code runs before cpu_feature_enabled() is
usable.

But it leads to section mismatch:

cpu_init()
  load_mm_ldt()
    ldt_slot_va()
      LDT_BASE_ADDR
        LDT_PGD_ENTRY
	  pgtable_l5_enabled()
	    __pgtable_l5_enabled

__pgtable_l5_enabled marked as __initdata, but cpu_init() is not __init.

It's fixable: early code can be isolated into a separate translation unit,
but such change collides with other work in the area.  That's too much
hassle to save 4 bytes of memory.

Return __pgtable_l5_enabled back to be __ro_after_init.
