Subject: [PATCH v4 0/6] arm64/mm: Move {idmap_pg_dir,swapper_pg_dir} to

Version 4 changes:
	1. Rename INIT_DIR to INIT_PG_TABLES and move it outside the
	   '.init.data' section[1].
	2. Move the 'count' calculation to clear_pages()[1].
	3. Rearrange register in __enable_mmu() and pass ttbr1 through
	   the x1 register[2].
	4. Add commit message to explain why we can make swapper_pg_dir
	   smaller[3].
	5. Rewrite in_swapper_pgdir() and use pgd_set_fixmap() to
	   populate swapper_pg_dir. At the same time, add a spin lock to
	   avoid race conditions[4].
	6. Move {idmap_pg_dir,tramp_pg_dir,reserved_ttbr0,swapper_pg_dir}
	   to the KERNEL_PG_TABLES macro. And put this macro after
	   NOTES[4].
