arm64/mm: use fixmap to modify swapper_pg_dir
Once swapper_pg_dir is in the rodata section, it will not be possible to modify it directly, but we will need to modify it in some cases. To enable this, we can use the fixmap when deliberately modifying swapper_pg_dir. As the pgd is only transiently mapped, this provides some resilience against illicit modification of the pgd, e.g. for Kernel Space Mirror Attack (KSMA).
