arm64: head: remove __PHYS_OFFSET
It's very easy to confuse __PHYS_OFFSET and PHYS_OFFSET. To clarify things, let's remove __PHYS_OFFSET and use KERNEL_START directly, with comments to show that we're using physical address, as we do for other objects. At the same time, update the comment regarding the kernel entry address to mention __pa(KERNEL_START) rather than __pa(PAGE_OFFSET). There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
