[PATCH V5 1/2] arm64/debug: Drop redundant DBG_MDSCR_* macros

MDSCR_EL1 has already been defined in tools sysreg format and hence can be
used in all debug monitor related call paths. But using generated sysreg
definitions causes build warnings because there is a mismatch between mdscr
variable (u32) and GENMASK() based masks (long unsigned int). Convert all
variables handling MDSCR_EL1 register as u64 which also reflects its true
width as well.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
arch/arm64/kernel/debug-monitors.c: In function ‘disable_debug_monitors’:
arch/arm64/kernel/debug-monitors.c:108:13: warning: conversion from ‘long
unsigned int’ to ‘u32’ {aka ‘unsigned int’} changes value from
‘18446744073709518847’ to ‘4294934527’ [-Woverflow]
  108 |   disable = ~MDSCR_EL1_MDE;
      |             ^
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

While here, replace an open encoding with MDSCR_EL1_TDCC in __cpu_setup().
