With nVHE, the host currently creates all stage 1 hypervisor mappings at
EL1 during boot, installs them at EL2, and extends them as required
(e.g. when creating a new VM). But in a world where the host is no
longer trusted, it cannot have full control over the code mapped in the
hypervisor.
In preparation for enabling the hypervisor to create its own stage 1
mappings during boot, introduce an early page allocator, with minimal
functionality. This allocator is designed to be used only during early
bootstrap of the hyp code when memory protection is enabled, which will
then switch to using a full-fledged page allocator after init.
