[PATCH] aarch64/mmu: Prevent block descriptors at level -1

In the original implementation, level -1 was unused and all levels could
have block-like descriptors (level 2 block descriptors are called page
descriptors). When support for level -1 page tables was added the
constraint on level -1 block descriptors was not honored. This prevents
block descriptors from being mapped at level -1 since the hardware will
not map them properly.
