arm64: mm: Use 48-bit virtual addressing for the permanent ID map
Even though we support loading kernels anywhere in 48-bit addressable physical memory, we create the ID maps based on the number of levels that we happened to configure for the kernel VA and user VA spaces. The reason for this is that the PGD/PUD/PMD based classification of translation levels, along with the associated folding when the number of levels is less than 5, does not permit creating a page table hierarchy of a set number of levels. This means that, for instance, on 39-bit VA kernels we need to configure an additional level above PGD level on the fly, and 36-bit VA kernels still only support 47-bit virtual addressing with this trick applied. Now that we have a separate helper to populate page table hierarchies that does not define the levels in terms of PUDS/PMDS/etc at all, let's reuse it to create the permanent ID map with a fixed VA size of 48 bits.
