Subject[PATCH v2 2/2] x86/mm/KASLR: Fix the size of vmemmap section
Date
kernel_randomize_memory() hardcodes the size of vmemmap section as 1 TB,
to support the maximum amount of system RAM in 4-level paging mode, 64 TB.

However, 1 TB is not enough in 5-level paging mode. Assuming the size of
struct page is 64 Bytes, To support 4 PB system RAM in 5-level, 64 TB of
vmemmap area is needed. The wrong hardcoding may cause vmemmap stamping
into the following cpu_entry_area section, if KASLR puts vmemmap very close
to cpu_entry_area , and the needed area of vmemmap is much bigger than
1 TB.

So here calculate the actual size of vmemmap region, then align up to 1 TB
boundary. In 4-level it's always 1 TB. In 5-level it's adjusted on demand.
The current code reserves 0.5 PB for vmemmap in 5-level. In this way, the
left space can be saved to join randomization to increase the entropy.
