remove_pagetable() does page walk using p*d_page_vaddr() plus cast.
It's not canonical approach -- we usually use p*d_offset() for that.

It works fine as long as all page table levels are present. We broke the
invariant by introducing folded p4d page table level.

As result, remove_pagetable() interprets PMD as PUD and it leads to
crash:

BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff880300000000
IP: memchr_inv+0x60/0x110
PGD 317d067
P4D 317d067
PUD 3180067
PMD 33f102067
PTE 8000000300000060

Let's fix this by using p*d_offset() instead of p*d_page_vaddr() for
page walk.
