Add 2 early command line parameters called "no5lvl" and "no4lvl" (using
the same naming as x86) to allow a user to downgrade from sv57 (the
default mode if the hardware supports it) to sv48 or sv39.
Note that going through the device tree to get the kernel command line
works with ACPI too since the efi stub creates a device tree anyway with
the command line.
Also, as those params are treated very early in the boot process and we
use standard device tree functions that may be kasan instrumented, we
only enable them for !KASAN configurations.
