Revert "x86/mm/ident_map: Use gbpages only where full GB page should be mapped."

commit c567f2948f57bdc03ed03403ae0234085f376b7d upstream.

This reverts commit d794734c9bbfe22f86686dc2909c25f5ffe1a572.

While the original change tries to fix a bug, it also unintentionally broke
existing systems, see the regressions reported at:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/3a1b9909-45ac-4f97-ad68-d16ef1ce99db@pavinjoseph.com/

Since d794734c9bbf was also marked for -stable, let's back it out before
causing more damage.

Note that due to another upstream change the revert was not 100% automatic:

  0a845e0f6348 mm/treewide: replace pud_large() with pud_leaf()
