Kirill A. Shutemov 589bb62be3 x86/boot/compressed/64: Fix moving page table out of trampoline memory
cleanup_trampoline() relocates the top-level page table out of
trampoline memory. We use 'top_pgtable' as our new top-level page table.

But if the 'top_pgtable' would be referenced from C in a usual way,
the address of the table will be calculated relative to RIP.
After kernel gets relocated, the address will be in the middle of
decompression buffer and the page table may get overwritten.
This leads to a crash.

We calculate the address of other page tables relative to the relocation
address. It makes them safe. We should do the same for 'top_pgtable'.

Calculate the address of 'top_pgtable' in assembly and pass down to
cleanup_trampoline().

Move the page table to .pgtable section where the rest of page tables
are. The section is @nobits so we save 4k in kernel image.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
