arm64: Introduce uaccess_{disable,enable} functionality based on TTBR0_EL1
This patch adds the uaccess macros/functions to disable access to user space by setting TTBR0_EL1 to a reserved zeroed page. Since the value written to TTBR0_EL1 must be a physical address, for simplicity this patch introduces a reserved_ttbr0 page at a constant offset from swapper_pg_dir. The uaccess_disable code uses the ttbr1_el1 value adjusted by the reserved_ttbr0 offset. Enabling access to user is done by restoring TTBR0_EL1 with the value from the struct thread_info ttbr0 variable. Interrupts must be disabled during the uaccess_ttbr0_enable code to ensure the atomicity of the thread_info.ttbr0 read and TTBR0_EL1 write. This patch also moves the get_thread_info asm macro from entry.S to assembler.h for reuse in the uaccess_ttbr0_* macros.
