[PATCH V5 09/12] arm64: mm: Modify calculation of VMEMMAP_SIZE

From: Steve Capper <hidden>
Date: 2019-08-07 15:58:27
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), the rest · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Linus Torvalds

In a later patch we will need to have a slightly larger VMEMMAP region
to accommodate boot time selection between 48/52-bit kernel VAs.

This patch modifies the formula for computing VMEMMAP_SIZE to depend
explicitly on the PAGE_OFFSET and start of kernel addressable memory.
(This allows for a slightly larger direct linear map in future).
