aarch64: Reduce UEFI space size to 4 MiB

Browse Source 
UEFI need to be loaded to a flash area at the beginning of guest memory
address space. To simulate the flash, we take a piece of RAM and hide
it to the guest. As this is a temporary solution, the hiden RAM for UEFI
should be as little as possible. The size was 64 MiB, that's too much,
4 MiB is enough.

The down side of such simulation is that there is a gap (4 MiB) between
the memory size in VMM's view and that in guest's view. This is to be
fixed by implementing a flash device in future.
