[PATCH v2 4/4] arm64: mm: Lazily clear pte table mappings from fixmap

With the pgtable operations abstracted into `struct pgtable_ops`, the
early pgtable alloc, map and unmap operations are nicely centralized. So
let's enhance the implementation to speed up the clearing of pte table
mappings in the fixmap.
Extend FIX_MAP so that we now have 16 slots in the fixmap dedicated for
pte tables. At alloc/map time, we select the next slot in the series and
map it. Or if we are at the end and no more slots are available, clear
down all of the slots and start at the beginning again. Batching the
clear like this means we can issue tlbis more efficiently.
Due to the batching, there may still be some slots mapped at the end, so
address this by adding an optional cleanup() function to `struct
pgtable_ops` to handle this for us.
Execution time of map_mem(), which creates the kernel linear map page
tables, was measured on different machines with different RAM configs:
| Apple M2 VM | Ampere Altra| Ampere Altra| Ampere Altra
| VM, 16G | VM, 64G | VM, 256G | Metal, 512G
---------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------
| ms (%) | ms (%) | ms (%) | ms (%)
---------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------
before | 11 (0%) | 109 (0%) | 449 (0%) | 1257 (0%)
after | 6 (-46%) | 61 (-44%) | 257 (-43%) | 838 (-33%)
