Yes, exactly as you means.

I think it is expressed here. Maybe we can stress it in this patch log. After all it's the main idea of this patch.
How about rewriting patch log like this:
******************** There is boundary checking for pointer in kaslr relocation handling. However current code is using output_len that is VO (vmlinux after objcopy) file size plus vmlinux.relocs file size to make the valid boundary.
That is not right since the max_addr check should stop at the end of VO and excludes bss, brk etc, which follows. Means the valid range should be VO [_text, __bss_start] in loaded physical address space.
In this patch, add export for __bss_start to voffset.h and use it to get max_addr. ********************
