Drop support for 48-bit virtual addressing on 16k pages, which is the
only remaining config that supports this explicitly.

On 16k pages, 48-bit virtual addressing uses 4 levels of translation,
where the top level has only 2 entries. This is very inefficient in
terms of TLB utilization, and so 47-bit virtual addressing is usually a
better choice.

Note that x86 supports only 47-bit virtual addressing for user space
with 4 translation levels, due to the way its page tables are
constructed (a single combined root table for both kernel and user
space), and so removing this configuration is unlikely to create
portability concerns.
