[PATCH 17/29] arm64: Kconfig: Add CONFIG_UNMAP_KERNEL_AT_EL0

[Alex Shi <alex.shi@linaro.org>]

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

commit 084eb77cd3a8 upstream.

Add a Kconfig entry to control use of the entry trampoline, which allows
us to unmap the kernel whilst running in userspace and improve the
robustness of KASLR.
