x86: always set _PAGE_GLOBAL in _PAGE_KERNEL* flags

Consistently set _PAGE_GLOBAL in _PAGE_KERNEL flags.  This makes 32-
and 64-bit code consistent, and removes some special cases where
__PAGE_KERNEL* did not have _PAGE_GLOBAL set, causing confusion as a
result of the inconsistencies.

This patch only affects x86-64, which generally always supports PGD.
The x86-32 patch is next.
