[RFC PATCH 1/6] arm64/mm: add explicit physical address argument to map_kernel_segment

In preparation of mapping a physically non-adjacent memory region
as backing for the vmlinux segment covering the trampoline and primary
level swapper_pg_dir regions, make the physical address an explicit
argument of map_kernel_segment().
