----------------------------------------------------------------
Introduce adr_l/ldr_l/str_l/mov_l assembler macros like we have on arm64,
and use them to replace open coded VA-to-PA arithmetic in various places
in the code. This avoids the use of literals on v7+ CPUs, reduces the
footprint of the code in most cases, and generally makes the code easier
to follow.

Series was posted here, and reviewed by Nicolas Pitre:
