From: Penny Zheng <penny.zheng@arm.com>

Introduce CONFIG_HAS_VMAP which is selected by the architectures that
use MMU. vm_init() does not do anything if CONFIG_HAS_VMAP is not
enabled.

HAS_VMAP is widely used in ALTERNATIVE feature to remap a range of
memory with new memory attributes. Since this is highly dependent on
virtual address translation, we choose to make HAS_VMAP selected by
MMU. And ALTERNATIVE depends on HAS_VMAP.

At the moment, the users of HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR requires to use the
vmap() to update the exceptions vectors. While it might be possible to
rework the code, it is believed that speculative attackes would be
difficult to exploit on non-MMU because the software is tightly
controlled. So for now make HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR to depend on the
MMU.

Also took the opportunity to remove "#ifdef VMAP_VIRT_START .. endif"
from vmap.c. Instead vmap.c is compiled when HAS_VMAP is enabled. Thus,
HAS_VMAP is now enabled from x86, ppc and riscv architectures as all of
them use MMU and has VMAP_VIRT_START defined.

Changes from :-

v1 - 1. HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR is now gated on HAS_VMAP.
2. cpuerrata.c is not gated on HAS_VMAP.

v2 - 1. Introduced CONFIG_VMAP in common/Kconfig.
2. Architectures using MMU select this config.
3. vm_init() now uses CONFIG_VMAP.

v3 - 1. HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR is now gated on MMU.
2. vmap.c is compiled when CONFIG_HAS_VMAP is enabled.
3. HAS_VMAP is enabled from x86, ppc and riscv architectures.

v4 - 1. Fixed the commit message.
2. Added Julien's Ack.
