SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/8] x86, kaslr: get kaslr_enabled back correctly

Correct. One possibility that works is sticking it right below
LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR:

+static void add_kaslr_setup_data(struct boot_params *params,
+ u8 *output, __u8 enabled)
{
+ /*
+ * Stick it right under LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR
+ */
+ ksd = (struct setup_data *)(output - 2 * sizeof(struct setup_data));

output is LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR AFAICT and is the minimum kASLR considers
so right below it should work:
