x86: always set _PAGE_GLOBAL in _PAGE_KERNEL* flags
Consistently set _PAGE_GLOBAL in _PAGE_KERNEL flags. This makes 32- and 64-bit code consistent, and removes some special cases where __PAGE_KERNEL* did not have _PAGE_GLOBAL set, causing confusion as a result of the inconsistencies. This patch only affects x86-64, which generally always supports PGD. The x86-32 patch is next.
