When the p4d page table layer is folded at runtime, the p4d_free()
should do nothing, the same as in <asm-generic/pgtable-nop4d.h>.
It seems this bug should cause double-free in efi_call_phys_epilog(),
but I don't know how to trigger that code path, so I can't confirm that
by testing.

There's other bug in the efi_call_phys_epilog() that prevents the bug from
being triggered.
With the patch below. You can trigger the bug with efi=old_map in kernel
command line + KALSR and CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y:

I may not understand boot-time p4d folding. Here p4d is folded, why
pgd_present() need always return 1 if p4d folded?

Yeah. This is confusing. Basically, we pretend that p4d level consist of 1
entry, with the same value as pgd above. We say that pgd is always present
and all checks happens on p4d level.
It's not specific to boot-time folding. Compilet-time folding doing the
same. See include/asm-generic/pgtable-nop4d.h (and the rest -nop?d.h)

x86/mm: Don't free P4D table when it is folded at runtime
When the P4D page table layer is folded at runtime, the p4d_free()
should do nothing, the same as in <asm-generic/pgtable-nop4d.h>.
It seems this bug should cause double-free in efi_call_phys_epilog(),
but I don't know how to trigger that code path, so I can't confirm that
by testing.
