Can't we just read the value of "vmemmap"? If not, what is the difference
between the calculated value above and the value of vmemmap?

Unfortunately that's not possible, because there is at least one arm64_VTOP()
call *before* the new machdep->machspec->physvirt_offset gets initialized,
which I presume is why Vinayak's patch checks whether it's non-zero first.
