Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 51/57] arm64: Introduce cpu features for page sizes

Introduce one boot cpu feature per page size, ARM64_USE_PAGE_SIZE_*K.
These will enable use of the alternatives framework to patch code based
on the page size selected at boot.

Additionally, this provides a neat way to figure out what page size is
in use during boot from the kernel log.
