ARM: earlier initialization of vectors page
Initialize the contents of the vectors page immediately after we allocate the page, but before we map it. This avoids any possible aliases with other mappings which may need to be flushed after the page has been mapped irrespective of the cache type. We follow this later with a flush_cache_all() after all static memory mappings have been initialized, which ensures that this is safe from any cache effects.
