riscv: kexec_file: Constrain segment placement to direct map

When kexec_file_load places segments with buf_max=ULONG_MAX and
top_down=true, they land at the highest available physical addresses.
On RISC-V the size of the linear mapping is determined by the active
VM mode: SV39 caps the direct map at roughly 128GB, while SV48/SV57
extend the range substantially further. When the installed physical
memory exceeds the direct map size of the active mode, top-down
placement puts DTB/initrd at physical addresses outside the linearly
mapped region. The kexec'd kernel cannot reach them during early
boot, triggering a page fault at memcmp in start_kernel.

Fix by constraining buf_max to PFN_PHYS(max_low_pfn), which reflects
the runtime direct map boundary for the active VM mode (SV39/SV48/
SV57). This keeps all kexec segments within the linearly mapped
region while preserving the upstream top_down allocation strategy.
