When arm64 is configured with CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL=y, a warning is
printed from the patching code because patch_map(), e.g.

The warning has been produced since commit:

  3e25d5a ("asm-generic: add an optional pfn_valid check to page_to_phys")

... which added a pfn_valid() check into page_to_phys(), and at this
point in boot pfn_valid() will always return false because the vmemmap
has not yet been initialized and there are no valid mem_sections yet.

Before that commit, the arithmetic performed by page_to_phys() would
give the expected physical address, though it is somewhat dubious to use
vmemmap addresses before the vmemmap has been initialized.

Aside from kernel image addresses, all executable code should be
allocated from execmem (where all allocations will fall within the
vmalloc area), and so there's no need for the fallback case when
CONFIG_EXECMEM=n.

Simplify patch_map() accordingly, directly converting kernel image
addresses and removing the redundant fallback case.
