From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@suse.de>

The walk_pte_level() function just uses __va to get the
virtual address of the PTE page, but that breaks when
the PTE page is not in the direct mapping with HIGHPTE=y.

The result is an unhandled kernel paging request at some
random address when accessing the current_kernel or
current_user file.

Use the correct API to access PTE pages nd fix the oops.

Fixes: fe770bf0310d ('x86: clean up the page table dumper and add 32-bit support')
