x86/pat: Restructure _lookup_address_cpa()
[ Upstream commit 02eac06b820c3eae73e5736ae62f986d37fed991 ]
Modify _lookup_address_cpa() to no longer use lookup_address(), but
only lookup_address_in_pgd().
This is done in preparation of using lookup_address_in_pgd_attr().
No functional change intended.
