This patch populates the L1 entries for MT_MEMORY and MT_MEMORY_NONACHED types so that at boot-up, we can map memories outside system memory at page level granularity Previously the mapping was limiting to section level, which creates unnecessary addiotional mapping for which physical memory may not present. On the newer ARM with speculation, this is dangerous and can result in untraceable aborts.
