The elf_init thing is suspicious, it suggests Xen hasn't properly
figured out the type of your kernel image. Is it a regular bare arm64
Image (from arch/arm64/boot/Image)? You can't boot the vmlinux from the
top level directly (AFAIK).

The 44 comes from  ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1.PARange.

4-levels are required for anything above 40-bits, so 44-bit PA also
needs 4-levels. This comes from things like tables D4-5 and D4-10 in the
ARMv8 ARM, which give the T0SZ range and maximum number of
levels/concatenation for various PAsizes.
