[PATCH PTI v3 09/10] x86/mm/64: Make a full PGD-entry size hole in the memory map

From: Andy Lutomirski
Date: Tue Dec 12 2017 - 10:58:13 EST


This patch shrinks vmalloc space from 16384TiB to 12800TiB to
enlarge the hole starting at 0xff90000000000000 to be a full PGD
entry.

A subsequent patch will use this hole for the pagetable isolation
LDT alias.
