the physmap. This will reduce the likelihood of an issue where we have
device memory mapped in the DMAP. This can only happen if it is within the
same 1G block of normal memory.

2TB. The latter can be increased in 512GB chunks by adjusting the lower
address, however more work will be needed to increase the former.
There is still some work needed to only create a DMAP region for the RAM
address space as on ARM architectures all mappings should have the same
memory attributes, and these will be different for device and normal memory.

increased to 256TiB. The kernel address space can also be increased to be
the same size, but this will be performed in a later change.
To help work with an extra level of page tables two new functions have
been added, one to file the lowest level table entry, and one to find the
block/page level. Both of these find the entry for a given pmap and virtual
address.
This has been tested with a combination of buildworld, stress2 tests, and
by using sort to consume a large amount of memory by sorting /dev/zero. No
new issues are known to be present from this change.

clock_gettime(2) on ARMv7 and ARMv8 systems which have architectural
generic timer hardware. It is similar how the RDTSC timer is used in
userspace on x86.
Fix a permission problem where generic timer access from EL0 (or
userspace on v7) was not properly initialized on APs.
For ARMv7, mark the stack non-executable. The shared page is added for
all arms (including ARMv8 64bit), and the signal trampoline code is
moved to the page.

place physical memory at an address outside the old DMAP range. This is an
issue as we rely on being able to move from PA -> VA using this range.

This is copied from the amd64 version with minor changes. These should be
merged into a single file as from a quick look there are other copies of
the same file in other parts of the tree.

Previous DMAP size was too small for systems with more than 64GB
of RAM. Increase it to 128GB to support ThunderX CRB.
