[PATCH v8 15/16] ARM: LPAE: add support for ATAG_MEM64

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon at arm.com>
LPAE provides support for memory banks with physical addresses of up
to 40 bits.
This patch adds a new atag, ATAG_MEM64, so that the Kernel can be
informed about memory that exists above the 4GB boundary.
