xen/arm: p2m: configure stage-2 page table to support upto 42-bit PA systems

At the moment, on platform supporting 42-bit PA, Xen will only expose
40-bit worth of IPA to all domains.

The limitation was to prevent allocating too much memory for the root
page tables as those platforms only support 3-levels page-tables. At the
time, this was deemed acceptable because none of the platforms had
address wired above 40-bits.

However, newer platforms take advantage of the full address space. This
will result to break Dom0 boot as it can't access anything above 40-bit.

The only way to support 42-bit IPA is to allocate 8 pages for the root
page-tables. This is a bit a waste of memory as Xen does not offer
per-guest stage-2 configuration. But it is considered acceptable as
current platforms support 42-bit PA have a lot of memory.

In the future, we may want to consider per-guest stage-2 configuration
to reduce the waste.
