  arm64: cpufeature: Move arm64_use_ng_mappings to the .data section to prevent wrong idmap generation (2025-05-06 11:43:44 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Move the arm64_use_ng_mappings variable from the .bss to the .data
section as it is accessed very early during boot with the MMU off and
before the .bss has been initialised. This can lead to incorrect idmap
page table.
