[ARM] 3813/1: prevent >= 4G /dev/mem mmap()

Prevent userland from mapping in physical address regions >= 4G by
checking for that in valid_mmap_phys_addr_range().

Unfortunately, we cannot override valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() without
also overriding valid_phys_addr_range(), so copy drivers/char/mem.c's
version of valid_phys_addr_range() over to arch/arm/mm/mmap.c as well.
