arm64: MMU definitions
The virtual memory layout is described in Documentation/arm64/memory.txt. This patch adds the MMU definitions for the 4KB and 64KB translation table configurations. The SECTION_SIZE is 2MB with 4KB page and 512MB with 64KB page configuration. PHYS_OFFSET is calculated at run-time and stored in a variable (no run-time code patching at this stage). On the current implementation, both user and kernel address spaces are 512G (39-bit) each with a maximum of 256G for the RAM linear mapping. Linux uses 3 levels of translation tables with the 4K page configuration and 2 levels with the 64K configuration. Extending the memory space beyond 39-bit with the 4K pages or 42-bit with 64K pages requires an additional level of translation tables. The SPARSEMEM configuration is global to all AArch64 platforms and allows for 1GB sections with SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP enabled by default.
