Subject: [PATCH 6/6] arm64/mm: Enable ZONE_DEVICE

Arch implementation for functions which create or destroy vmemmap mapping
(vmemmap_populate, vmemmap_free) can comprehend and allocate from inside
device memory range through driver provided vmem_altmap structure which
fulfils all requirements to enable ZONE_DEVICE on the platform. Hence just
enable ZONE_DEVICE by subscribing to ARCH_HAS_ZONE_DEVICE. But this is only
applicable for ARM64_4K_PAGES (ARM64_SWAPPER_USES_SECTION_MAPS) only which
creates vmemmap section mappings and utilize vmem_altmap structure.
