arm64: apply __ro_after_init to some objects
These objects are set during initialization, thereafter are read only. Previously I only want to mark vdso_pages, vdso_spec, vectors_page and cpu_ops as __read_mostly from performance point of view. Then inspired by Kees's patch[1] to apply more __ro_after_init for arm, I think it's better to mark them as __ro_after_init. What's more, I find some more objects are also read only after init. So apply __ro_after_init to all of them. This patch also removes global vdso_pagelist and tries to clean up vdso_spec[] assignment code.
