arm64: Fix linker script entry point
Change the arm64 linker script ENTRY() command to define _text as the kernel entry point. The arm64 boot protocol specifies that the kernel must be entered at the beginning of the kernel image. The existing ENTRY() command defined the symbol stext as the entry point, which emitted an incorrect entry point, but would not cause a runtime error because the existing entry code immediately jumps to stext.
