[PATCH v3] arm64: Expose the end of the linear map in PHYSMEM_END

The memory hot-plug and resource management code needs to know the
largest address which can fit in the linear map, so set
PHYSMEM_END for that purpose.

This fixes a crash[1] at boot when amdgpu tries to create
DEVICE_PRIVATE_MEMORY and is given a physical address by the
resource management code which is outside the range which can have
a `struct page`

The Fixes: commit listed below isn't actually broken, but the
reorganization of vmemmap causes the improper DEVICE_PRIVATE_MEMORY address
to go from a warning to a crash.
