arch: Create a method to finalize physical addresses
in the TLB Some architectures (currently only x86) require some fixing-up of physical addresses after a normal address translation. This is usually to remap devices such as the APIC, but could be used for other memory mapped devices as well. When running the CPU in a using hardware virtualization, we still need to do these address fix-ups before inserting the request into the memory system. This patch moves this patch allows that code to be used by such CPUs without doing full address translations.
