[PATCH 3/6] Introduce a function to randomize the kernel text mapping address

From: Baoquan He
Date: Tue Jan 20 2015 - 22:37:58 EST


Kaslr extended kernel text mapping region size from 512M to 1G,
namely CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE_MAX_OFFSET. This means kernel text
can be mapped to below region:

__START_KERNEL_map + LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR, __START_KERNEL_map + 1G]

Introduce a function find_random_virt_offset() to get random value
between LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR and CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE_MAX_OFFSET.
This random value will be added to __START_KERNEL_map to get the
starting address which kernel text is mapped from.
