Subject: [PATCH v4 02/26] arm64: mm: make vabits_actual a build time constant if possible

Currently, we only support 52-bit virtual addressing on 64k pages
configurations, and in all other cases, vabits_actual is guaranteed to
equal VA_BITS (== VA_BITS_MIN). So get rid of the variable entirely in
that case.

While at it, move the assignment out of the asm entry code - it has no
need to be there.
