[RFC PATCH v1 37/57] arm64: Fix macros to work in C code in addition to the linker script

Previously INIT_DIR_SIZE and INIT_IDMAP_DIR_SIZE used _end for the end
address of the kernel image. In the linker script context, this resolves
to an integer that refers to the link va of the end of the kernel image.
But in C code it resolves to a pointer to the end of the image as placed
in memory. So there are 2 problems; because its a pointer, we can't do
arithmetic on it. And because the image may be in a different location
in memory than the one it was linked at, it is not correct to find the
image size by subtracting KIMAGE_VADDR.

So introduce KIMAGE_VADDR_END, which always represents the link va of
the end of the kernel image as an integer.
