[PATCH v7 9/9] x86/mm: Memory hotplug support for KASLR memory randomization (x86_64)

[Kees Cook]

From: Thomas Garnier <thgarnie@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add a new option (CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY_PHYSICAL_PADDING) to define
the padding used for the physical memory mapping section when KASLR
memory is enabled. It ensures there is enough virtual address space when
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG is used. The default value is 10 terabytes. If
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG is not used, no space is reserved increasing the
entropy available.
