[PATCH v3 1/4] kaslr: add immovable_mem=nn[KMG]@ss[KMG] to specify extracting memory

From: Chao Fan
Date: Tue Dec 05 2017 - 03:52:22 EST


In current code, kaslr may choose the memory region in movable
nodes to extract kernel, which will make the nodes can't be hot-removed.
To solve it, we can specify the memory region in immovable node.
Create immovable_mem to store the regions in immovable_mem, where should
be chosen by kaslr.

Multiple regions can be specified, comma delimited.
Considering the usage of memory, only support for 4 regions.
4 regions contains 2 nodes at least, enough for kernel to extract.

Also change the "handle_mem_memmap" to "handle_mem_filter", since
it will not only handle memmap parameter now.
