arm64/mm: Separate boot-time page tables from swapper_pg_dir
Since the address of swapper_pg_dir is fixed for a given kernel image, it is an attractive target for manipulation via an arbitrary write. To mitigate this we'd like to make it read-only by moving it into the rodata section. We require that swapper_pg_dir is at a fixed offset from tramp_pg_dir and reserved_ttbr0, so these will also need to move into rodata. However, swapper_pg_dir is allocated along with some transient page tables used for boot which we do not want to move into rodata. As a step towards this, this patch separates the boot-time page tables into a new init_pg_dir, and reduces swapper_pg_dir to the single page it needs to be. This allows us to retain the relationship between swapper_pg_dir, tramp_pg_dir, and swapper_pg_dir, while cleanly separating these from the boot-time page tables. The init_pg_dir holds all of the pgd/pud/pmd/pte levels needed during boot, and all of these levels will be freed when we switch to the swapper_pg_dir, which is initialized by the existing code in paging_init(). Since we start off on the init_pg_dir, we no longer need to allocate a transient page table in paging_init() in order to ensure that swapper_pg_dir isn't live while we initialize it. There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
