[RFC PATCH v1 08/57] fs: Remove PAGE_SIZE compile-time constant assumption

[Ryan Roberts <ryan.roberts@arm.com>]

To prepare for supporting boot-time page size selection, refactor code
to remove assumptions about PAGE_SIZE being compile-time constant. Code
intended to be equivalent when compile-time page size is active.

In binfmt_elf, convert CPP conditional to C ternary operator; this will
be folded to the same code by the compiler when in compile-time page
size mode, but will also work for runtime evaluation in boot-time page
size mode.

In coredump, modify __dump_skip() to emit zeros in blocks of
PAGE_SIZE_MIN. This resolves to the previous PAGE_SIZE for compile-time
page size, but that doesn't work for boot-time page size. PAGE_SIZE_MIN
is preferred here over PAGE_SIZE_MAX to save memory.

Wrap global variables that are initialized with PAGE_SIZE derived values
using DEFINE_GLOBAL_PAGE_SIZE_VAR() so their initialization can be
deferred for boot-time page size builds.
