The vmalloc_fault() path was removed and to avoid syncing the vmalloc PGD
mappings, they are now preallocated. But if the kernel can use a PUD
mapping (which in sv39 is actually a PGD mapping) for large vmalloc
allocation, it will free the current unused preallocated PGD mapping and
install a new leaf one. Since there is no sync anymore, some page tables
lack this new mapping and that triggers a panic.

So only allow PUD mappings for sv48 and sv57.

Fixes: 7d3332be011e ("riscv: mm: Pre-allocate PGD entries for vmalloc/modules area")
