[PATCH 08/10] arm64: increase sparsemem MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS to 52

Sparsemem is used to store page structs and other information for each
physical page in the system. In order to support 52-bit physical memory,
increase MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS to 52 when 52-bit physical memory is
configured. If it is not configured, then the kernel can't use 52-bit
memory, so leave MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS at 48 in that case. (The kconfig
option to set ARM64_PA_BITS to 52 will be added in a later patch.)
