So you have extended the movable_node option from no value specified to
adding a limit value, then why don't you go one step further to extend
it as movable_node=xxx@start. With this, you can eat the cake you have.

My personal opinion, could that other peopel have better idea. But dig
into acpi tables to grab the srat table, that is really not a good idea.

Chao has spent time to know the srat table, maybe he can try to make a
patch with the "movable_node=xxx@start" handling in kaslr.c, let's see
what it looks like.

Thanks
