s390/mm: rework memcpy_real() to avoid DAT-off mode

Function memcpy_real() is an univeral data mover that does not
require DAT mode to be able reading from a physical address.
Its advantage is an ability to read from any address, even
those for which no kernel virtual mapping exists.

Although memcpy_real() is interrupt-safe, there are no handlers
that make use of this function. The compiler instrumentation
have to be disabled and separate no-DAT stack used to allow
execution of the function once DAT mode is disabled.

Rework memcpy_real() to overcome these shortcomings. As result,
data copying (which is primarily reading out a crashed system
memory by a user process) is executed on a regular stack with
enabled interrupts. Also, use of memcpy_real_buf swap buffer
becomes unnecessary and the swapping is eliminated.

The above is achieved by using a fixed virtual address range
that spans a single page and remaps that page repeatedly when
memcpy_real() is called for a particular physical address.
