  The sanity check inside rte_eal_check_dma_mask is using 47 bits as
the maximum size. It turns out there are some IOMMU hardware reporting
48 bits precluding the IOVA VA mode to be enabled.

It is harmless to raise the maximum mask size to 63 bits.

This patch also removes any reference to unused X86_VA_WIDTH.

Fixes: 3a80bc50c949 ("mem: add function for checking memsegs IOVAs addresses")
