x86/pti/32: Size initial_page_table correctly
Commit 945fd17ab6ba ("x86/cpu_entry_area: Sync cpu_entry_area to initial_page_table") introduced the sync for the initial page table for 32bit. sync_initial_page_table() uses clone_pgd_range() which does the update for the kernel page table. If PTI is enabled it also updates the user space page table counterpart, which is assumed to be in the next page after the target PGD. At this point in time 32-bit did not have PTI support, so the user space page table update was not taking place. The support for PTI on 32-bit which was introduced later on, did not take that into account and missed to add the user space counter part for the initial page table. As a consequence sync_initial_page_table() overwrites any data which is located in the page behing initial_page_table causing random failures, e.g. by corrupting doublefault_tss and wreckaging the doublefault handler on 32bit. Fix it by adding a "user" page table right after initial_page_table.
