arm64: head: Clear BSS and the kernel page tables in one go
We will move the CPU feature overrides into BSS in a subsequent patch, and this requires that BSS is zeroed before the feature override detection code runs. So let's map BSS read-write in the ID map, and zero it via this mapping. Since the kernel page tables are right next to it, and also zeroed via the ID map, let's drop the separate clear_page_tables() function, and just zero everything in one go.
