[PATCH 2/2] x86/boot: increase maximum number of avoided KASLR regions

[Julian Stecklina]

From: Julian Stecklina <jsteckli@xxxxxxxxx>

The boot code has a limit of 4 "non-standard" regions to avoid for
KASLR. This limit is easy to reach when supplying memmap= parameters to
the kernel. In this case, KASLR would be disabled.

Increase the limit to avoid turning off KASLR even when the user is
heavily manipulating the memory map.
