ARM: p2v: reduce p2v alignment requirement to 2 MiB (2020-09-26 11:41:21 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Implement the necessary changes in the ARM assembler boot code to permit the relative alignment of the physical and the virtual addresses of the kernel to be as little as 2 MiB, as opposed to the minimum of 16 MiB we support today.

ARM: kvm: replace open coded VA->PA calculations with adr_l call (2020-09-26 11:13:45 +0200)

Note that the first two patches are shared with 1/2, so that the PRs can be merged independently. With those omitted from the diffstat, it becomes

----------------------------------------------------------------
Introduce adr_l/ldr_l/str_l/mov_l assembler macros like we have on arm64, and use them to replace open coded VA-to-PA arithmetic in various places in the code. This avoids the use of literals on v7+ CPUs, reduces the footprint of the code in most cases, and generally makes the code easier to follow.
