arm64: mm: allow enforcing of strict break-before-make for page tables
The ARM ARM strongly recommends using break-before-make when updating
page table entries in the following circumstances:
* A change of the memory type.
* A change of the cacheability attributes.
* A change of the output address (OA), if the OA of at least one of
the old translation table entry and the new translation table entry
is writable.
This patch adds a debug option to the kernel so that we can detect
break-before-make violations in set_pte and print a warning.
