Currently, the altp2m feature has been used and thus documented for the
x86 architecture. As we aim to introduce altp2m to ARM, in this commit,
we adjust the documentation by pointing out x86 only parts and thus make
clear that the modes XEN_ALTP2M_external and XEN_ALTP2M_disabled are
also valid for the ARM architecture.

 Alternate-p2m allows a guest to manage multiple p2m guest physical "memory
