arm64: mm: use single quantity to represent the PA to VA translation
[ Upstream commit 7bc1a0f9e1765830e945669c99c59c35cf9bca82 ]
On arm64, the global variable memstart_addr represents the physical
address of PAGE_OFFSET, and so physical to virtual translations or
vice versa used to come down to simple additions or subtractions
involving the values of PAGE_OFFSET and memstart_addr.
When support for 52-bit virtual addressing was introduced, we had to
deal with PAGE_OFFSET potentially being outside of the region that
can be covered by the virtual range (as the 52-bit VA capable build
needs to be able to run on systems that are only 48-bit VA capable),
and for this reason, another translation was introduced, and recorded
in the global variable physvirt_offset.
However, if we go back to the original definition of memstart_addr,
i.e., the physical address of PAGE_OFFSET, it turns out that there is
no need for two separate translations: instead, we can simply subtract
the size of the unaddressable VA space from memstart_addr to make the
available physical memory appear in the 48-bit addressable VA region.
This simplifies things, but also fixes a bug on KASLR builds, which
may update memstart_addr later on in arm64_memblock_init(), but fails
to update vmemmap and physvirt_offset accordingly.
