[RFC PATCH] arm64: fix the missing ktpi= cmdline check in arm64_kernel_unmapped_at_el0()

From: Hongbo Yao
Date: Tue Mar 17 2020 - 07:55:14 EST


Kpti cannot be disabled from the kernel cmdline after the commit
09e3c22a("arm64: Use a variable to store non-global mappings decision").

Bring back the missing check of kpti= command-line option to fix the
case where the SPE driver complains the missing "kpti-off" even it has
already been set.
