Currently most platforms define FIRST_USER_ADDRESS as 0UL duplication the
same code all over. Instead just define a generic default value (i.e 0UL)
for FIRST_USER_ADDRESS and let the platforms override when required. This
makes it much cleaner with reduced code.

The default FIRST_USER_ADDRESS here would be skipped in <linux/pgtable.h>
when the given platform overrides its value via <asm/pgtable.h>.

This applies on v5.12-rc7 and has been boot tested on arm64 platform.
But has been cross compiled on multiple other platforms.

Changes in V2:

- Dropped ARCH_HAS_FIRST_USER_ADDRESS construct

This all looks fine to me, will this be merged via the arm tree?  I guess you
have a means for that.
I am hoping that this should go via the MM tree instead.
