The bitmask used to define these values produces overflow, as seen by
this compiler warning:

arch/arm64/kernel/head.S:47:8: warning:
      integer overflow in preprocessor expression
  #elif (PAGE_OFFSET & 0x1fffff) != 0
         ^~~~~~~~~~~
arch/arm64/include/asm/memory.h:52:46: note:
      expanded from macro 'PAGE_OFFSET'
  #define PAGE_OFFSET             (UL(0xffffffffffffffff) << (VA_BITS -
1))
                                      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ^

It would be preferrable to use GENMASK_ULL() instead, but it's not set
up to be used from assembly (the UL() macro token pastes UL suffixes
when not included in assembly sources).
