    commit 9b31cf49 ("arm64: mm: Introduce MAX_USER_VA_BITS definition")
    introduced the MAX_USER_VA_BITS definition, which was used to support
    the arm64 mm use-cases where the user-space could use 52-bit virtual
    addresses whereas the kernel-space would still could a maximum of 48-bit
    virtual addressing.
    
    But, now with commit b6d00d47 ("arm64: mm: Introduce 52-bit Kernel
    VAs"), we removed the 52-bit user/48-bit kernel kconfig option and hence
    there is no longer any scenario where user VA != kernel VA size
    (even with CONFIG_ARM64_FORCE_52BIT enabled, the same is true).
    
    Hence we can do away with the MAX_USER_VA_BITS macro as it is equal to
    VA_BITS (maximum VA space size) in all possible use-cases. Note that
    even though the 'vabits_actual' value would be 48 for arm64 hardware
    which don't support LVA-8.2 extension (even when CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS_52
    is enabled), VA_BITS would still be set to a value 52. Hence this change
    would be safe in all possible VA address space combinations.
