Sure. Fix in v2.

Yes, understood. Will update the commit log.

Yes, as you checked this change won't break current tests, so if you
have better comments I will replace it with yours.

Yes, I have rearranged the series to avoid this.

Yes, I've dropped the _va_size() function and instead, expanded a bit
as you suggested the aarch64_get_supported_page_sizes() to check if vcpu
can address upto 52-bit VA space or not (48-bit max). 

Thanks,
