x86/trampoline: Bypass compat mode in trampoline_start64() if not needed
The trampoline_start64() vector is used when a secondary CPU starts in 64-bit mode. The current implementation directly enters compatibility mode. It is necessary to disable paging and re-enable it in the correct paging mode: either 4- or 5-level, depending on the configuration. The X86S[1] ISA does not support compatibility mode in ring 0, and paging cannot be disabled. Rework the trampoline_start64() function to only enter compatibility mode if it is necessary to change the paging mode. If the CPU is already in the desired paging mode, proceed in long mode. This allows a secondary CPU to boot on an X86S machine as long as the CPU is already in the correct paging mode. In the future, there will be a mechanism to switch between paging modes without disabling paging.
