    x86/mm: Ensure input to pfn_to_kaddr() is treated as a 64-bit type
    
    [ Upstream commit 8e5647a723c49d73b9f108a8bb38e8c29d3948ea ]
    
    On 64-bit platforms, the pfn_to_kaddr() macro requires that the input
    value is 64 bits in order to ensure that valid address bits don't get
    lost when shifting that input by PAGE_SHIFT to calculate the physical
    address to provide a virtual address for.
    
    One such example is in pvalidate_pages() (used by SEV-SNP guests), where
    the GFN in the struct used for page-state change requests is a 40-bit
    bit-field, so attempts to pass this GFN field directly into
    pfn_to_kaddr() ends up causing guest crashes when dealing with addresses
    above the 1TB range due to the above.
    
    Fix this issue with SEV-SNP guests, as well as any similar cases that
    might cause issues in current/future code, by using an inline function,
    instead of a macro, so that the input is implicitly cast to the
    expected 64-bit input type prior to performing the shift operation.
    
    While it might be argued that the issue is on the caller side, other
    archs/macros have taken similar approaches to deal with instances like
    this, such as ARM explicitly casting the input to phys_addr_t:
    
      e48866647b48 ("ARM: 8396/1: use phys_addr_t in pfn_to_kaddr()")
    
    A C inline function is even better though.
    
    [ mingo: Refined the changelog some more & added __always_inline. ]
