From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb at kernel.org>
These seven patches were taken from [0] and tweaked to address the
feedback by Mark Rutland. They reconfigure the upper region of the
kernel VA space so that the vmemmap region can be resized dynamically
on 52-bit builds running on 48-bit-only hardware. This is needed for
LPA2 support.
They can be applied onto the arm62 lpa2-prep branch.

v7:
- add static assert to avoid the fixmap overlapping with the PCI I/O
region
- avoid deriving VMEMMAP_END from VMEMMAP_START+VMEMMAP_SIZE in ptdump.c
- add ack from Mark
