[PATCH v2 02/15] x86, boot: move ZO to end of buffer

From: Yinghai Lu
Date: Wed Mar 04 2015 - 03:05:50 EST


bp found data from boot stage can not be used kernel stage.

Actually those data area is overlapped with VO kernel bss stage, and clear_bss()
clear them before code in arch/x86/kernel/setup.c access them.

To make the data survive that later, we should avoid the overlapping.

At first move compressed kernel close the end of buffer instead of middle
of the buffer.
