Subject[PATCH 01/45] mm: Introduce lm_alias
Date
From: Laura Abbott <labbott@redhat.com>

commit 568c5fe5a54 upstream.

Certain architectures may have the kernel image mapped separately to
alias the linear map. Introduce a macro lm_alias to translate a kernel
image symbol into its linear alias. This is used in part with work to
add CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL support for arm64.
