arm64/mm: Separate boot-time page tables from swapper_pg_dir

Since the address of swapper_pg_dir is fixed for a given kernel image,
it is an attractive target for manipulation via an arbitrary write. To
mitigate this we'd like to make it read-only by moving it into the
rodata section.

We require that swapper_pg_dir is at a fixed offset from tramp_pg_dir
and reserved_ttbr0, so these will also need to move into rodata.
However, swapper_pg_dir is allocated along with some transient page
tables used for boot which we do not want to move into rodata.

As a step towards this, this patch separates the boot-time page tables
into a new init_pg_dir, and reduces swapper_pg_dir to the single page it
needs to be. This allows us to retain the relationship between
swapper_pg_dir, tramp_pg_dir, and swapper_pg_dir, while cleanly
separating these from the boot-time page tables.

The init_pg_dir holds all of the pgd/pud/pmd/pte levels needed during
boot, and all of these levels will be freed when we switch to the
swapper_pg_dir, which is initialized by the existing code in
paging_init(). Since we start off on the init_pg_dir, we no longer need
to allocate a transient page table in paging_init() in order to ensure
that swapper_pg_dir isn't live while we initialize it.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
