arm64: Work around convergence issue with LLD linker



LLD will occasionally error out with a '__init_end does not converge'
error if INIT_IDMAP_DIR_SIZE is defined in terms of _end, as this
results in a circular dependency.

Counter this by dimensioning the initial IDMAP page tables based on a
new boundary marker 'kimage_limit', and define it such that its value
should not change as a result of the initdata segment being pushed over
a 64k segment boundary due to changes in INIT_IDMAP_DIR_SIZE, provided
that its value doesn't change by more than 2M between linker passes.
