I think it may not fail.
There is a 'restart' to do another pass.

I think it's better to fix here, but not KASLR side.
Cause much more code will be change if doing it in KASLR side.
Since we didn't parse 'kernelcore' in compressed code, and you can see
the distribution of ZONE_MOVABLE need so much code, so we do not need
to do so much job in KASLR side. But here, several lines will be OK.
