As reported by Eugene, the practice of sizing the address space in the
virtual memory system based on the maximum address in the table passed
to ArmConfigureMmu() is problematic, since it fails to take into account
the fact that the GCD memory space may be extended at a later time, both
for memory and for MMIO. So instead, choose the VA size identical to the
GCD memory map size, which is based on PcdPrePiCpuMemorySize on ARM
systems.

Currently, we allocate a full page for the root translation table, even
if the configured translation only requires two entries (16 bytes) for
the root level, which happens to be the case for a 40 bit VA. Likewise,
for a 36-bit VA space, the root table only needs 16 entries of 8 bytes
each, adding up to 128 bytes.
So switch to a pool allocation for the root table if we can, but take into
account that the architecture requires it to be naturally aligned to its
size, i.e., a 64 byte table requires 64 byte alignment, whereas pool
allocations in general are only guaranteed to be aligned to 8 bytes.

Also, drop the unnecessary cast.

The relations between T0SZ, the number of translation levels and the
size/alignment of the root table can be expressed in simple arithmetic
expressions, so get rid of the lookup table.
Note that this disregards the fact that the maximum value of T0SZ is
39 not 42 (as one would expect for the smallest VA size using 2 levels)
but since this corresponds to a VA size of 32 MB and 4 MB, respectively,
neither of which are sufficient to run UEFI, we can safely ignore the

version of the code will be pulled in, and will happily satisfy all
other references to the same symbol.
So add a pair of glue libraries, for ARM and AARCH64, that reference
the known intrinsics. Since the binaries live under ArmPkg directly,

On ARM, manipulating live page tables is cumbersome since the architecture
mandates the use of break-before-make, i.e., replacing a block entry with
a table entry requires an intermediate step via an invalid entry, or TLB
conflicts may occur.
Since it is not generally feasible to decide in the page table manipulation
routines whether such an invalid entry will result in those routines
themselves to become unavailable, use a function that is callable with
the MMU off (i.e., a leaf function that does not access the stack) to
perform the change of a block entry into a table entry.
Note that the opposite should never occur, i.e., table entries are never
