[RFC 7/9] arm64: increase PHYS_MASK to 52 bits

PHYS_MASK_SHIFT represents the highest possible physical address
supported by the kernel, and is used in a number of places. In order to
support 52-bit physical memory, increase PHYS_MASK_SHIFT to 52 when
52-bit physical memory is configured, and retain 48 if it is not, to
e.g. keep IDMAP_PGTABLE_LEVELS accurate.
