Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/6] arm64: avoid open-coding THREAD_SIZE{,_ORDER}

Currently we define THREAD_SIZE_ORDER dependent on which arm64-specific
page size kconfig symbol was selected. This is unfortunate, as it hides
the relationship between THREAD_SIZE_ORDER and THREAD_SIZE, and makes it
painful more painful than necessary to modify the thread size as we will
need to do for some debug configurations.

This patch follows arch/metag's approach of consistently defining
THREAD_SIZE in terms of THREAD_SIZE_ORDER. This avoids having ifdefs for
particular page size configurations, and allows us to change a single
definition to change the thread size.
