arm64: mm: increase VA range of identity map

The page size and the number of translation levels, and hence the supported
virtual address range, are build-time configurables on arm64 whose optimal
values are use case dependent. However, in the current implementation, if
the system's RAM is located at a very high offset, the virtual address range
needs to reflect that merely because the identity mapping, which is only used
to enable or disable the MMU, requires the extended virtual range to map the
physical memory at an equal virtual offset.

This patch relaxes that requirement, by increasing the number of translation
levels for the identity mapping only, and only when actually needed, i.e.,
when system RAM's offset is found to be out of reach at runtime.
