On arm64 there is optional support for a 52-bit virtual address space.
To exploit this one has to be running with a 64KB page size and be
running on hardware that supports this.
For an arm64 kernel supporting a 48 bit VA with a 64KB page size,
some changes are needed to support a 52-bit userspace:
* TCR_EL1.T0SZ needs to be 12 instead of 16,
* TASK_SIZE needs to reflect the new size.
This patch implements the above when the support for 52-bit VAs is
detected at early boot time.
On arm64 userspace addresses translation is controlled by TTBR0_EL1. As
well as userspace, TTBR0_EL1 controls:
* The identity mapping,
* EFI runtime code.
It is possible to run a kernel with an identity mapping that has a
larger VA size than userspace (and for this case __cpu_set_tcr_t0sz()
would set TCR_EL1.T0SZ as appropriate). However, when the conditions for
52-bit userspace are met; it is possible to keep TCR_EL1.T0SZ fixed at
12. Thus in this patch, the TCR_EL1.T0SZ size changing logic is
disabled.
