arm64: mm: treat memstart_addr as a signed quantity
Commit c031a4213c11 ("arm64: kaslr: randomize the linear region") implements randomization of the linear region, by subtracting a random multiple of PUD_SIZE from memstart_addr. This causes the virtual mapping of system RAM to move upwards in the linear region, and at the same time causes memstart_addr to assume a value which may be negative if the offset of system RAM in the physical space is smaller than its offset relative to PAGE_OFFSET in the virtual space. Since memstart_addr is effectively an offset now, redefine its type as s64 so that expressions involving shifting or division preserve its sign.
