Before we supported direct execution from MMIO regions, we
implemented workarounds in commit 720424359917887c926a33d2
which let us avoid doing so, even if the SAU or MPU region
was less than page-sized.

Once we implemented execute-from-MMIO, we removed part
of those workarounds in commit d4b6275df320cee76; but
we forgot the one in get_phys_addr_pmsav8() which
suppressed use of small SAU regions in executable regions.
Remove that workaround now.
