[PATCH v7 01/33] arm64: mm: Avoid SWAPPER_BLOCK_xxx constants in FDT fixmap logic

The FDT is permitted to be up to 2 MiB in size, and is mapped in the
fixmap region using the same granularity as we use for the initial ID
map, and up until recently, as we use for the preliminary mapping of the
kernel in swapper_pg_dir.

However, even though the constants are the same, the motivation is
different: on 4k pagesize configurations, the fixmap region only has 2
MiB's worth of level 3 PTE slots to begin with, and so mapping the FDT
down to pages in the fixmap would be wasteful, and this is why we use
block mappings in this case. This is also documented in the boot
protocol, i.e., adjacent regions must not be used by the platform in a
away that could result in the need for memory attributes that conflict
with the cacheable attributes used for the FDT block mapping.

For larger page sizes, using block mappings is unnecessary, and given
the potential issues caused by rounding, undesirable, so we use page
mappings in that case.

So to convey that this granularity is unrelated to the swapper block
size, and to allow us to rename or remove the associated constants in a
subsequent patch, use our own constants to define the granularity.

No functional change intended, although the FDT fixmap virtual address
will no longer be 2 MiB aligned on non-4k pages configurations.
