Revert "x86/mm/64: Do not sync vmalloc/ioremap mappings"

This reverts commit 8bb9bf242d.

It seems the vmalloc page tables aren't always preallocated in all
situations, because Jason Donenfeld reports an oops with this commit:

  BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffe8ffffd00608
  #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
  #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page

  CR2: ffffe8ffffd00608

and that page fault address is right in that vmalloc space, and we
clearly don't have a PGD/P4D entry for it.

Looking at the "Code:" line, the actual fault seems to come from the
'pwq->wq' dereference at the top of the process_one_work() function:

        struct pool_workqueue *pwq = get_work_pwq(work);
        struct worker_pool *pool = worker->pool;
        bool cpu_intensive = pwq->wq->flags & WQ_CPU_INTENSIVE;

so 'struct pool_workqueue *pwq' is the allocation that hasn't been
synchronized across CPUs.

Just revert for now, while Joerg figures out the cause.
