From: Kirill A. Shutemov

Here's few changes to x86 decompression code.

The first patch is pure cosmetic change: it gives file with KASLR helpers
a proper name.

The last two patches bring support of booting into 5-level paging mode if
a bootloader put the kernel above 4G.

Patch 2/3 handles allocation of space for trampoline and gets it prepared.
Patch 3/3 gets trampoline used.

Kirill A. Shutemov (3):
x86/boot/compressed/64: Rename pagetable.c to kaslr_64.c
x86/boot/compressed/64: Introduce place_trampoline()
x86/boot/compressed/64: Handle 5-level paging boot if kernel is above
4G
