39bits地址线，4K页时3级页表，64K页时2级页表。
In terms of MMU, it currently supports 39-bit address space for user and kernel (each) with 3-level page table and 4KB pages or 2-level page table and 64KB pages (see Documentation/aarch64/memory.txt). The virtual address space can be extended to 48-bit.
32bits兼容模式，但只允许在4k页的模式下。
二者无法同时工作，因为转换需要exception来完成。
Compat (32-bit) user applications (ARM EABI only) are supported with the 4KB page configuration. There is no interworking between AArch32 and AArch64 code (the architecture requires an exception entry/exit to change the mode).
