Support of boot-time switching between 4- and 5-level paging mode is upstream since 4.17.
We run internal testing with 5-level paging support enabled for a while and it doesn't not cause any functional or performance regression on 4-level paging hardware.
The only 5-level paging related regressions I saw were in early boot code that runs independently from CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL.
The next major release of distributions expected to have CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y.
Enable the option by default. It may help to catch obscure bugs early.
