Unless you object, I'd like to keep the last 3 as well, to mirror the
min bits, should any new configurations be added but not reflected here:
+       default 15 if ARM64_64K_PAGES
+       default 17 if ARM64_16K_PAGES
+       default 18

The first two of these three should be changed as well to 14 and 16.

Thanks,
Dan
