MIPS: Align swapper_pg_dir to 64K for better TLB Refill code.
We can save an instruction in the TLB Refill path for kernel mappings by aligning swapper_pg_dir on a 64K boundary. The address of swapper_pg_dir can be generated with a single LUI instead of LUI/{D}ADDUI. The alignment of __init_end is bumped up to 64K so there are no holes between it and swapper_pg_dir, which is placed at the very beginning of .bss. The alignment of invalid_pmd_table and invalid_pte_table can be relaxed to PAGE_SIZE. We do this by using __page_aligned_bss, which has the added benefit of eliminating alignment holes in .bss.
