At the moment, on MMU system, enable_mm() will return to an address in

Since remove_identity_mapping() is not necessary on MPU system, and we also
avoid creating empty function for MPU system, trying to keep only one codeflow
in arm64/head.S, we move path switch and remove_identity_mapping() in
enable_mm() on MMU system.
AFAICT, remove_identity_mapping() is still using ENTRY(). But you could
avoid to introduce ENTRY() if you re-order your series so this patch
happens before the MMU specific code is moved in a separate helper.

This will need to be rebased on top of [1] (which will be merged pretty
soon). There are two main differences:
1) enable_mmu has an extra parameter to take the root page-tables
2) the remove_identity_mapping should only be called for the boot CPU.
So I think we want to introduce two functions:
1) enable_boot_mmu
2) enable_runtime_mmu
You might need the same for the MPU as I would expect it would be per-CPU.
