[PATCH v2] ARM: vector_table: Fix creation of second level page table

The second level page tables can only start at a 1MiB section boundary,
so instead of calling arm_create_pte() with the high vector address
(which is 0xffff0000, not 1MiB aligned) we have to call it with
0xfff00000 to correctly create a second level page table.
The old values broke SoCs which have peripherals in the upper 1MiB
area, like for example the Atmel AT91RM9200. On these Socs we correctly
created the vector page, but the pages around it did not have a 1:1
mapping anymore which led to unreachable peripherals.
