Subject: selftests: change NR_CHUNKS_HIGH for aarch64
Date: Tue, 14 Mar 2023 09:53:50 +0530

Although there is a provision for 52 bit VA on arm64 platform, it remains
unutilised and higher addresses are not allocated.  In order to
accommodate 4PB [2^52] virtual address space where supported,
NR_CHUNKS_HIGH is changed accordingly.

Array holding addresses is changed from static allocation to dynamic
allocation to accommodate its voluminous nature which otherwise might
overflow the stack.
