We need a new helper for Xen to enable MPU in boot-time.
The new helper is semantically consistent with the original enable_mmu.
If the Background region is enabled, then the MPU uses the default memory
map as the Background region for generating the memory
attributes when MPU is disabled.
Since the default memory map of the Armv8-R AArch64 architecture is
IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED, we always turn off the Background region.
In this patch, we also introduce a neutral name enable_mm for
Xen to enable MMU/MPU. This can help us to keep one code flow
in head.S
