x86-64: Only set max_pfn_mapped to 512 MiB if we enter via head_64.S

head_64.S maps up to 512 MiB, but that is not necessarity true for
other entry paths, such as Xen.

Thus, co-locate the setting of max_pfn_mapped with the code to
actually set up the page tables in head_64.S.  The 32-bit code is
already so co-located.  (The Xen code already sets max_pfn_mapped
correctly for its own use case.)

-v2:

 Yinghai fixed the following bug in this patch:

 |
 | max_pfn_mapped is in .bss section, so we need to set that
 | after bss get cleared. Without that we crash on bootup.
 |
 | That is safe because Xen does not call x86_64_start_kernel().
