[POWERPC] Port fixmap from x86 and use for kmap_atomic
The fixmap code from x86 allows us to have compile time virtual addresses
that we change the physical addresses of at run time.
This is useful for applications like kmap_atomic, PCI config that is done
via direct memory map, kexec/kdump.
We got ride of CONFIG_HIGHMEM_START as we can now determine a more optimal
location for PKMAP_BASE based on where the fixmap addresses start and
working back from there.
Additionally, the kmap code in asm-powerpc/highmem.h always had debug
enabled. Moved to using CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM to determine if we should
have the extra debug checking.
