[PATCH v2] x86: kaslr to avoid setup_data regions

From: Dave Young
Date: Wed May 14 2014 - 04:02:31 EST


X86 will pass setup_data region while necessary, these regions could be
overwitten by kernel due to kaslr.

Thus iterate and add setup regions to mem_avoid[] in this patch.
Set max mem avoid entries 32, hopefully it will be enough.
