Subject: [PATCH v3 17/21] arm64: add support for a relocatable kernel and KASLR
This adds support for runtime relocation of the kernel Image, by
building it as a PIE (ET_DYN) executable and applying the dynamic
relocations in the early boot code.
On top of this, support for KASLR is implemented, based on entropy
provided by the bootloader in register x1 at kernel entry. Depending
on the size of the address space (VA_BITS) and the page size, the
entropy in the virtual displacement is up to 13 bits (16k/2 levels)
and up to 25 bits (all 4 levels), with the caveat that displacements
that result in the kernel image straddling a 1GB/32MB/512MB alignment
boundary (for 4KB/16KB/64KB granule kernels, respectively) are not
allowed.
The same virtual offset is applied to the module region: this gives
almost the same security benefits, and keeps the modules in close
proximity to the kernel so we only have to rely on branches via PLTs
once the module region is exhausted (which is slightly more likely
to occur, as the relocated module region is shared with other uses
of the vmalloc area)
