x86/tboot: Unbreak tboot with PTI enabled
This is another case similar to what EFI does: create a new set of page tables, map some code at a low address, and jump to it. PTI mistakes this low address for userspace and mistakenly marks it non-executable in an effort to make it unusable for userspace. Undo the poison to allow execution.
