This is not necessarily a cleanup.  Getting rid of
TARGET_PHYS_ADDR_SPACE_BITS in exec.c means fixing device-to-device DMA
bugs for example.

Of course a smaller patch can be done that avoids the renaming of L2_*
constants.

The number of levels in the dispatch radix tree is independent of the
size of the AddressSpace; it is P_L2_LEVELS for both the 64K io space
and the 2^TARGET_PHYS_ADDRESS_SPACE_BITS memory space.
