ARM: tegra: reduce DRAM size mapped into MMU on ARM64
ARM CPUs can architecturally (speculatively) prefetch completely arbitrary normal memory locations, as defined by the current translation tables. The current MMU configuration for 64-bit Tegras maps an extremely large range of addresses as DRAM, well beyond the actual physical maximum DRAM window, even though U-Boot only needs access to the first 2GB of DRAM; the Tegra port of U-Boot deliberately limits itself to 2GB of RAM since some HW modules on at least some 64-bit Tegra SoCs can only access a 32-bit physical address space. This change reduces the amount of RAM mapped via the MMU to disallow the CPU from ever speculatively accessing RAM that U-Boot will definitely not access. This avoids the possibility of the HW raising SError due to accesses to always-invalid physical addresses.
