Currently, Xen is using UINT32 for MPIDR mask to retrieve
affinity[0,1,2,3] values for MPIDR_EL1 register. The value
of MPIDR_EL1 is 64-bit unsigned long. The 32-bit unsinged
integer will do unsigned extend while doing some operations
with 64-bit unsigned integer. This can lead to unexpected
result in some use cases.

For example, in gicv3_send_sgi_list of GICv3 driver:
uint64_t cluster_id = cpu_logical_map(cpu) & ~MPIDR_AFF0_MASK;

When MPIDR_AFF0_MASK is 0xFFU, compiler output:
    f7c: 92785c16 and x22, x0, #0xffffff00
When MPIDR_AFF0_MASK is 0xFFUL, compiler output:
    f88: 9278dc75 and x21, x3, #0xffffffffffffff00

If cpu_logical_map(cpu) = 0x100000000UL and MPIDR_AFF0_MASK is
0xFFU, the cluster_id returns 0. But the expected value should
be 0x100000000.

So, in this patch, we force aarch64 to use unsigned long
as MPIDR mask to avoid such unexpected results.
