[PATCH v11 5/6] arm64: kexec: enable MMU during kexec relocation

Now, that we have transitional page tables configured, temporarily enable
MMU to allow faster relocation of segments to final destination.
The performance data: for a moderate size kernel + initramfs: 25M the
relocation was taking 0.382s, with enabled MMU it now takes
0.019s only or x20 improvement.
The time is proportional to the size of relocation, therefore if initramfs
is larger, 100M it could take over a second.
