Subject: [PATCH] arm64: use dedicated bits to record the VA space layout
 changes

arm64 memory layout experiences big changes due to the following kernel
commits in date descending order:
  5. 7bc1a0f9e176 arm64: mm: use single quantity to represent the PA to VA translation
  4. b6d00d47e81a arm64: mm: Introduce 52-bit Kernel VAs
  3. 5383cc6efed1 arm64: mm: Introduce vabits_actual
  2. 14c127c957c1 arm64: mm: Flip kernel VA space
  1. f80fb3a3d508 arm64: add support for kernel ASLR

For 1, crash has already used NEW_VMEMMAP to trace it.
For 2, crash lacks a flag to tag it and handle it differently.
For 3, two important kernel variables vabits_actual and physvirt_offset
are introduced.
For 4, since it comes immediately after 3, crash-utility does not need
to distinguish it.
For 5, kernel variable phyvirt_offset is removed

These changes have effects on PTOV()/VTOP() formula. So introducing
two bits HAS_PHYSVIRT_OFFSET and FLIPPED_VM as hint to apply different
formula.
