Any chance we could do this even earlier, say right after 
setup_processor? It would be nice to be able to do this while FDT 
scanning (I have a use case in mind, potential patches are in the works)

Neither x86 nor arm64 get rid of existing mapping in paging_init. Is 
there a reason this needs to be here for arm? Are there concerns about 
alias mappings?
