A prep patch to add aarch64 nolibc support.

aarch64 supports three values of page size: 4K, 16K, and 64K which are
selected at kernel compilation time. Therefore, we can't hard code the
page size for this arch. Utilize open(), read() and close() syscall to
find the page size from /proc/self/auxv. For more details about the
auxv data structure, check the link below [1].

v2:
  - Fallback to 4K if the syscall fails.
  - Cache the page size after read as suggested by Jens.
