[RFC][PATCH] arm64: Add support for CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL

x86 has an option CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL to do additional checks
on virt_to_phys calls. The goal is to catch users who are calling
virt_to_phys on non-linear addresses immediately. As features
such as CONFIG_VMAP_STACK get enabled for arm64, this becomes
increasingly important. Add checks to catch bad virt_to_phys
usage.

This has been on my TODO list for a while. It caught a few bugs with
CONFIG_VMAP_STACK on x86 so when that eventually gets added
for arm64 it will be useful to have. This caught one driver calling __pa on an
ioremapped address already. RFC for a couple of reasons:

1) This is basically a direct port of the x86 approach.
2) I needed some #ifndef __ASSEMBLY__ which I don't like to throw around.
3) I'm not quite sure about the bounds check for the VIRTUAL_BUG_ON with KASLR,
specifically the _end check.
4) Is it worth actually keeping this as DEBUG_VIRTUAL vs. folding it into
another option?
