On a system with 4-level page-tables there is no p4d, so the pud in the pgd
should be mapped. The old code before commit fb43d6cb91ef already did that.
The change from above commit causes an invalid page-table which causes
undefined behavior. In one report it caused triple faults.
Fix it by changing the p4d back to pud.
Fixes: fb43d6cb91ef ('x86/mm: Do not auto-massage page protections')

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
