    xen/arm64: head: Remove 1:1 mapping as soon as it is not used
    
    The 1:1 mapping may clash with other parts of the Xen virtual memory
    layout. At the moment, Xen is handling the clash by only creating a
    mapping to the runtime virtual address before enabling the MMU.
    
    The rest of the mappings (such as the fixmap) will be mapped after the
    MMU is enabled. However, the code doing the mapping is not safe as it
    replace mapping without using the Break-Before-Make sequence.
    
    As the 1:1 mapping can be anywhere in the memory, it is easier to remove
    all the entries added as soon as the 1:1 mapping is not used rather than
    adding the Break-Before-Make sequence everywhere.
    
    It is difficult to track where exactly the 1:1 mapping was created
    without a full rework of create_page_tables(). Instead, introduce a new
    function remove_identity_mapping() will look where is the top-level entry
    for the 1:1 mapping and remove it.
    
    The new function is only called for the boot CPU. Secondary CPUs will
    switch directly to the runtime page-tables so there are no need to
    remove the 1:1 mapping. Note that this still doesn't make the Secondary
    CPUs path safe but it is not making it worst.
    
    Note that the TLB flush sequence is same sequence as described in
    asm-arm/arm32/flushtlb.h with a twist. Per D5-2530 ARM DDI 0487D.a,
    a dsb nsh is sufficient for local flush. This part of the Arm Arm
    was missed while reworking the header and therefore a more conservative
    way was adopted.
