This fixes a bug (for when relocation can be above 2G in later patches), standardizes where the compressed kernel is positioned for decompression, corrects (and simplies) the total kernel run size calculation, and (using the now available offset constants) fixes bounds-checking on relocations. The patch series following this one will split the KASLR physical and virtual base address randomization. -Kees
