s390/mm: Simplify crst_table_upgrade()
In case of an upgrade from four to five level page tables, and a failing pgd allocation, the exit path of crst_table_upgrade() would incorrectly dereference the p4d NULL pointer via pagetable_dtor(). Address this by reworking crst_table_upgrade(), which basically is a revert of [1]. Take into account that GFP_KERNEL order-2 allocation failures are very unlikely. Therefore keep the code as simple as possible: In case of an upgrade from three to five levels, and an allocation failure of the fifth page table level, keep the upgrade to four levels instead of reverting back to three levels. This allows to keep error handling minimal.
